Bullshit a bit in a sense that 99.999% this will never be needed in real interview, as it is math and specific theorem needed.
Sorry, I'm after Kinedryl, so I'm still flying high after the flight to Dublin, I can't really grasp the math. My advice - skip this nonsense for now.

Basically no pattern here, just some unique trick (some people suggest you need to do 2 hards to understand the intuition, but I wouldn't agree with that fully). Added simple visual for building the intuition and solution explanation

Posting random quotes from the book to recall the fundamentals.
Some years ago as I was exploring tcp/ip stack practically, I created HTTP server using tcp layer, but I was wondering HOW CAN I write my tcp implementation. The answer is here: everything below tcp(inclusive) is kernel mode. So it is not that easy/impossible to replace it with your impl - so you got to work with socket() os api, and choose between udp/tcp.
