Create a Simple Streamlit Python CSV Comparison and Edit App (via Claude)

Since I’ve switched to use Claude from OpenAI ChatGPT, I have been pretty impressed. This blog entry showed my steps of creating an utility that I use at work for csv file comparison and editing. I need such a tool because I want to apply special logic and I am also on Mac, and the built-in Number app is not the easiest to use.

I was able to create this python utility app in less than 30 min. I do have knowledge about python and the packages that are used (streamlit and panda).

My Coding Interview 2021-2024

In this blog post, I will describe my coding interview preparation process and lessons learned. I will also talk about what did not work in my previous prep, what I did this time that is different, and also what could be done better.

In 2021 I had an interview with Apple and did not really prepare much at Coding Interview. I did well enough during system interview but coding interview was quite a disaster.

Then I had another round of interviews in 2022. What I did in 2022 was better than 2021 but was still not enough.

I considered this search quite successful, although there are always room for improvement, and would like to record my 4 months journey and share some tips for those who might consider a new job in the current climate.
