Write a function that takes
an array of characters and reverses the
letters in place.
Why an array of
characters instead of a string?
The goal of this
question is to practice manipulating strings
in place. Since we're modifying the
input, we need
a mutable
type
like an array,
instead
of Objective-C's
immutable strings.
In general, an in-place algorithm will require swapping elements.
We swap the first and last characters, then the second and second-to-last characters, and so on until we reach the middle.
Actually, we don't support password-based login. Never have. Just the OAuth methods above. Why?
It's easy and quick. No "reset password" flow. No password to forget.
It lets us avoid storing passwords that hackers could access and use to try to log into our users' email or bank accounts.
It makes it harder for one person to share a paid Interview Cake account with multiple people.
“The questions on Interview Cake closely mirror what I saw in real interviews, but more importantly, the guidance about how to think through and spot categories of problems enabled me to build confidence quickly. Can't recommend it enough!
