Cracking the Coding Interview

The focus of Cracking the Coding Interview is algorithm, coding, and design questions. Why? Because while you can and will be asked behavioral questions, the answers will be as varied as your resume. Like- wise, while many firms will ask so-called "trivia" questions (e.g., "What is a virtual function?"), the skills devel- oped through practicing these questions are limited to very specific bits of knowledge. The book will briefly touch on some of these questions to show you what they're like, but I have chosen to allocate space to areas where there's more to learn.
