This seems like it's implying that knowing the difference between a Queue and a Stack is a good indicator of experience.

How do you figure that as a good signal?



It's not a good indicator of experience. But it's probably a decent indicator of a lack of experience.

Queue vs stack is an extremely basic concept. They're not even unique terms to CS. You can almost guess what they are just by their names.


Exactly this. You don't have to be 180 IQ to solve it. There is no trick in this question. Much better than asking for FizzBuzz implementation.
