i'm curious if leetcode or other similar gives you a competency level after you do two or three questions.

like, on a 1-10 scale, you're a 5. or a leetcode-5.

as opposed to, how good are you at python?

oh, well, i can usually do leetcode difficult questions without too much difficulty until they involve floating regressive recusions, in which case i'm a little bit more middle-to difficult completing sort of.

sure you can't measure communication abilities, etc., but you should be able to measure pure mastery of a language, then maybe with an algo addition, etc.
