Just had a case of Baader-Meinhof. I did an interview last week and I was asked to do the FizzBuzz test in PHP. I'd never heard of it, thought it was a cool question though. Glad to see I produced the text book answer though!

You were a German left-wing terrorist?
FizzBuzz is not so much cool, but a small test to filter out people who can't program at all. (So it's actually sad.)
How is it "a cool question" by any metric? It's a mock question.
