I should say there are no good interview questions. There are only good
interviewers. An interviewer, presumably, is looking for someone who fits
the staff profile, not necessarily a C++ guru. Anyway, I hate the concept of
hiring based on top-of-the-head knowledge. While working, you look things up
that you don't know, and experiment, ask others, etc. It's the working style
that is important and subject matter knowledge for specific jobs. Example: I
worked in Anti Submarine Warfare for a while. It certainly helped to know
what a series is and various measures that could be applied and how an
equation is derived that fits the series, etc. Nothing to do with
programming, you see.
If you want the questions as a study guide to C++ you might just as well use
the exercises in any good textbook. ACCU is your friend.
