I got interviewed last year and what surprises me a lot is to hear this strange question from the person who handle the interview? I was so speechless and my sweat begins to wet inmy whole body. I'm totally blank and I wasn't able to answer. The interviewer shows a nasty smile and obviously a sign of unsatisfied answer. Of course I didn't get that job and after that I started to ask myself how can this question be raised and how this question be answered. Is anyone here can help me to answer this kind of interview question? is this kind of question really needed to land a job you want?

It’s a great reminder of how sometimes interviewers throw quirky questions to see how you think beyond code. For anyone prepping, I’d suggest looking at resources like because they help you practice thinking on your feet. Frontend interviews are about problem-solving just as much as coding skills, and engaging with trivia like this could really sharpen those creative problem-solving abilities that employers are looking for. Plus, it makes the process a bit more fun!

for me because donut's center can't be fried totally so they decided to have it a hole.
