I was asked that at one of my interviews at Netflix!

You're a wizard! (See, I thought it was a viable tough question. But I've been having trouble finding candidates who seem up to it.)

No, I'm not really a great Wizard! After failing to come up with a good solution, I thought I wasn't going to get the job! But I must have explored enough of the right paths while trying to work it out, because I did well enough to get the offer :)
