Just got a mail from the agent, "You have not been selected for the next stage" ,I think they are a bit awkward as you said a poor line and you can't pick up on visual cues...

I smoked through a phone interview once. She didn't say anything till the end of the interview, then she said she heard me smoking throughout - and would I do that in a normal interview? I replied I would if it was held in my house which this one half had been.
I didn't get the job.

It wasn't a technical job or anything, in fact it was before I went to Uni, I think it was to be a logistics manager at Tesco or something similar that I didn't really want.

Phone interviews have left me confident that I wouldn't get the job.

Yep.....the 1st one I had for this job, before the face to face, and also the 2nd one following the face to face!
Good luck anyway!

The answer was CHEETAH
Sounds like the shark CHEATER
might be catty? CHEETAH
Shark is a synonym for "Cheater", as in "card shark". http://www.thesaurus.com/browse/cheater[^]

Cheater never came into mind. I thought of lender, bank and even Shylock..
Good one

That's card-sharp! Shark is used for a slightly different kind of cheater, as in loan-shark.
My rejected answers included porbeagle (it's not very good at being a dog so it's a bit catty, see!) and tigerish (tiger sharks are a thing) but I neglected the non-swimming sharks. I'm struggling a bit with the idea that a cheetah only might be catty though!

Can be either "Card Shark" or "Card Sharp"[^]

Well...they are technically Big Cats - Panthera - which is a different genus from domestic cats = Felis - and as such have round pupils[^] just like we do, rather than "cat's eyes". But...they purr rather than roar (you can't do both) so they are "a bit catty" rather than the "full moggy"!

I am going to have an exam of C++ tomorrow, so I thought why not just open the book, swap pages from one to the last one, then close it and go back to Haskell once again. But while I did, I asked myself "Are arrays actually consecutive in memory?".
Along with that, I came to another question, "Why is a[5] == 5[a] ?" that was something I never knew about before. So, I went searching for the answers and tried it on my own machine too, to make my mind actually believe that I was accessing the ath element of array 5.
int main()
{
int a[5] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
std::cout << i[a] << ", ";
}
std::cout << std::endl;
system("pause");
return 0;
}
For those who didn't know it (just like me!) the logic is that C (or C++) translates a[5] to (a + 5) and then gets the data from that location. Which, is similar to having 5[a] that gets translated to
(5 + a) . Mathematically, we know 5 + a == a + 5. Thus, compiler accepted that.
I hope, I am not alone who didn't know it yet. I can say I know nothing of C or C++.
For those who want to read a thread, head over to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/381542/with-c-arrays-why-is-it-the-case-that-a5-5a?rq=1[^].

And now that you know it, please try to forget it.
Because if you use that in "real world" code, somebody is going to smack you round the head.

Yep, won't make any use of it. But it was interesting fact.

Nah!
It's for C++ people.

Agreed.. because you can doesn't mean you should.

But we both know once something is seen it cannot be unseen and that it will be done just to amaze and confound others.
