"I would say about 95-98% of the applicants get this question
wrong. I have had people I respect give the "obvious" wrong answer,
though, so it's mostly a matter of not really thinking about it
before answering."
I can't see an obviously wrong answer, only a trivially right one, so
perhaps you should tell us the mysterious obviously wrong answer. I tried
this on a few people around here and they were all as puzzled as I was.
