Google234··on Why Senior Engineers Hate Coding Interviews
I don’t get the “LOL” from you but ok. Anyway, the fundamentals are in textbooks for a reason, they aren’t domain specific. To answer your other question, I could definitely solve most leetcode and so could my colleagues. Maybe not perfectly optimally first try for all but who cares about that.
