foo.bar challenges: a secret hiring process by Google to recruit programmers and developers.
While I was doing some searches on Google homepage, I received an invite via a prompt like this:
By clicking on Yes, I was catapulted into a UNIX-like shell with a limited sequence of commands.
The goal is to solve five levels, each level can have one or more challenges.
To enter a level and start a challenge, there is the request command.
You can propose your solution in Python or Java. There are two solution file and, depending on the coding language chosen, you must edit the corresponding file with the edit filename command.
To test if your solution is correct and without errors, the verify filename command runs some test cases and shows the results of your solutions (note that the tests are hidden).
Finally, to submit your solution there is the submit filename command.
