Question 1
10 people always get on a bus in the same order and sit on the same places. What is the probability that, if the 1st person has randomly changed his/her seat, the 10th will be able to sit on his/her original seat?
Difficult interview and they want all things in candidate. I didn't realize they want experience and the thing is they had pretty much confirmed that they want a superman for the job.
