#hackerrank — Public Fediverse posts

Can anyone tell me, definitively, whether or not you're allowed to look at official sources of documentation while taking a #Hackerrank test?

I had to take one yesterday, for an SRE role. The first question was asking me how to create a container with a #Terraform provider that I'd never heard of, and didn't know the syntax for.

There's no way for us to know everything we need to do our technical professions by heart. That's so unrealistic an expectation.

Needless, to say, even with only 10 questions, I'm certain I bombed. They asked me about Java, which I've never coded in. They asked me about Typescript, which I've never coded in.

How did we get to the place where we decided that random exams with random questions (often about stuff we'll never use *on the job*!!) are a good metric to decide someone's suitability for a role???

If you ask me, it's a *TERRIBLE* metric.

It seems #ChatGPT can not resolve a problem of #hackerRank just with the official description of the problem, pretty interesting

I upload a video in my #peertube channel where I'm resolving a #hackerRank problem. I hope you enjoy it

Преобразование Уолша-Адамара

На сайте hackerrank.com есть отличная задача . По заданному массиву short[] A; найти максимальное количество его подмассивов, xor элементов которых будет одинаковым. Сам этот xor тоже нужно найти. Максимальная длина массива равна 10 5 , так что квадратичный алгоритм не укладывается в лимит по времени исполнения. Я в своё время с этой задачей не справился и сдался, решив подсмотреть авторское решение. И в этот момент я понял почему не справился - автор предлагал решать задачу через дискретное преобразование Фурье.

Do you think being able to solve HackerRank/LeetCode style questions helps you become a better software engineer, or better in solving these types of questions?

#softwareengineer #leetcode #hackerrank #programming #SoftwareEngineering

wtf #rust and #hackerrank

How and why can you give me different outputs for this? 😠

My rank has improved to top 5000, yeah!

The great thing about platforms like #Codewars and #Hackerrank is that you can see when something like SQL has a built-in function to do what you coded.

The terrible thing about platforms like codewars and hackerrank is that you can see there was a built-in solution for the thing you just manually coded... 🥲

I've been going through the Odin Project, and I'm starting to lose #motivation. I like the idea of project based #learning but can't seem to get into it lately. Are #codewars or #hackerrank good resources to get some practice while changing the style of learning?

Part of the problem is that solving problems is interesting, but the #CSS seems so bland anymore. Should I just use some framework if I feel ok with the basics?

Which do you use?

Codecademy
Sololearn
Hacker rank
freeCodeCamp

Anyone else on #hackerrank? I just signed up and love it. I am codeHaiku on hackerrank.com.
