Hello friends!

I hope you had a great week. I had a week off in between jobs, which was fun, but I'm ready to be done. Also for you Super Bowl watchers out there: Go Eagles!

Something that interested me this week

Today I officially started my new job at Amazon! Thank you so much to those who sent such kind notes about the role, I really appreciate it.

This past week, I was fairly productive. I answered at least 200 emails, started making a table, took a class at church, coded a bunch, had a playdate with some of the moms in the neighborhood (I love cute babies), watched all of The Good Place (great show), and my husband and I went on a fun mini-vacation in where we ate tons of seafood and played board games together. I've really loved having a fairly relaxing week. That being said, I'm really excited to get back to work.  I can only be alone for so long before I get cabin fever!
 

Interview question of the week

Last week, I had you print out a Fibonacci triangle. Here's a good solution someone wrote.

Here's this week's problem!
Write a function to reverse a stack using recursion. Your stack has the following functions: isEmpty(s), push(s), and pop(s).
