Question 1
how to test a stapler... that was what tripped me up. maybe i should have thought about it like a software object with methods such as load(StapleBlock[] staples) which need testing. instead i thought of it like i was a person wanting to buy a cheap stapler which would staple pages together properly.

Straightforward technical loop overall, with strong interviewers at every stage. I genuinely enjoyed the in-depth conversations around technical challenges and algorithmic problem-solving — the entire process felt well-structured and genuinely engaging.
