What a genuinely terrible interview. Seems like a great way to learn absolutely nothing about the candidate.
I would have walked out half way through. These types of questions are very telling of an organization which is extremely insecure in its own abilities.
For anyone who is a somewhat experienced programmer it is not hard to tell if someone else knows what he is talking about. You do not need to waste 45 minutes of someone's time on whether they can correctly interpret and execute some joke requirements.
