Hi, here's your problem today. This problem was recently asked by Facebook:

By the way, check out our NEW project AlgoPro (http://algopro.com) for over 60+ video coding sessions with ex-Google/ex-Facebook engineers.

Given a list, find the k-th largest element in the list.
Input: list = [3, 5, 2, 4, 6, 8], k = 3
Output: 5
Here is a starting point:

def findKthLargest(nums, k):

  # Fill this in.



print findKthLargest([3, 5, 2, 4, 6, 8], 3)

# 5
