There were riddles and brain teasers. Eventually people realized that people who were good at those weren’t necessarily good at the job. Eventually people will realize the same about leetcode.

this is what i heard places like google asked.questions like how many marbles could fill an airplane. idk if it was just like urban legends though.

I'm pretty sure Google published a list of such questions themselves at some point.

But as I remember it, they were always presented as "show you can think" not "know the answer".

That's how how leet code questions are presented now hah
