   During this round, I was given an interesting problem called the Infinite Grid Game. The setup was simple, players drop colored balls, numbered from 1 to n, into vertical columns, and the goal is to win, If three balls of the same color stack up in a column. Once I solved that, the interviewer added a twist, the win condition should also work for three in a row horizontally. Then, they took it a step further and asked me to handle a generalized case, k balls in a row or column.
