Using Ruby for Meta interview?

I'm a Ruby developer with an upcoming interview at Meta - just wondering if it's ok to use? I imagine Python is ok to use, and Ruby has a similar syntax. I've read others who had interviews at Amazon, Uber, Twitter saying they've used Ruby without issue so hoping it's the same with Meta. My only worry is that Ruby doesn't have things like Linked Lists - so how would that be handled if I was questioned on them? #meta

Impressive if true. Does FORTRAN have any data structure libraries you can import ?

Neither interviewer nor coderpad know fortran. So you can come up with an imaginary name for any ds you need and import it.

If you can’t throw up a a quick Node class with next/previous/val attrs with Ruby you may not be ready for the interview.

I could but I wouldn't have expected I'd be asked to implement my own LinkedList before even getting to the question, considering you only have 30 mins. Surely they'd switch the question.

Write it in your own toylang and supply the interpreter.
