Hello and welcome to Simon's coding exercise! I very much appreciate you taking the time to work through the exercises and hope you enjoy doing them.
I expect that you should be able to complete the exercises within 2 hours.
In approaching your solution, write your code as if you intended to ship it to production. Tests are expected. While it is great if you can answer the exercises correctly, it is equally important that your code is clear, idiomatic and maintainable.
I recommend that you use the language you are most comfortable with.
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to reach out to us!
There are two exercises each with two parts. They are described in the files problem1.txt and problem2.txt. Each exercise has a required input which can be found in the input directory.
Please provide your answers in the exercise.txt files
I will use your answers as a measure of:
- How you can follow and implement a set of requirements
- Is the code you produce well written
- How you ensure your code is robust and working as expected
- How is your solution in terms of being efficient/concise/general
- Did you get the answers right! :-)
