Half Brothers · Accepted Answer

what about the half brother/sister? do we have to include them as well?
Also how to find ones parent? It is available in the data structure or we have to recurse from top and find?

For first code test, just get a List of the person's father's children and the person's mother's children, and loop through those children, updating a separate list every time you find a new oldest sister
