Facebook Programming Challenge :

How does this work :
Take the timed challenge. If your code passes the test, you will be contacted for a telephone interview. If your code is too similar to another applicant, you will both be disqualified, so please don't share or post your answers online.

What position are these tests for :
These are for various positions in our Software Engineering department.

** Once you hit submit we will present you with a timed programming question that you must complete as quickly as possible in one of the following languages - C, C++, Java, Python, Perl, Ruby, C#, PHP.
** Tests typically take 1 to 2 hours. Please make sure you have the time free before starting.
** Each programming question has sample testcases that you can download and test your code against it.
** There is a button 'Compile & Test' which allows you to test your code in-browser against the sample testcases
** You must answer the question correctly in the time given. Defensive coding to deal with malformed input is not required, so please focus on just solving the problem as quickly as possible.
** Read inputs from STDIN and output to STDOUT
** The classname to be used for Java program is Solution
** If you want to get a feel for how the system works before starting the timer, please try our sample question http//bit.ly/oUHI4G
