Medium data structure and algorithm practice puzzle.
Given values pushed in order onto a stack, return the order they'd come out if it worked like a queue. Pour the first stack into a second one. That reverses the order, so popping from the second stack gives you first in, first out.
Solve it three ways: snap the jigsaw pieces together, fill in the blanks, or type it from scratch against the tests. This one is free.
Every line of the solution comes with a note explaining why it is there, and a step by step replay shows the code running. At level 3, where you type it yourself, you can ask for an AI mock interview on this problem that ends with a hiring manager's scorecard.
Then grow it into a real project with the Software Engineer button: this puzzle becomes the Ticket Replay Log, a pipeline you can run and download. See every Software Engineer project.
