Problem Overview

Anthropic MLE / research question, reconstructed from 2 candidate reports (October 2025 to April 2026). Tests: iterators and generators. Candidates reported 2 follow-ups. The write-up includes a Python solution that passes 12 test cases.

  • 2 candidate-reported follow-ups — the probes candidates report being asked, with the trigger for each
  • The full problem statement — full requirements, constraints, and edge cases
  • Approach and trade-offs — what passing candidates did, and the mistakes that sink people
