Conquer the JavaScript Interview: Max Character Count [Beginner Skill Level]

Previous Video for String Breakdown:

This is a part of my Algorithms and Data Structures playlist series. We cover a lot of common interview questions asked during whiteboards for entry level developers. Learning to master these takes time, practice, and pattern recognition. So I'll be helping you equip a toolbelt and filling it with as many tools as I can to help prepare you crush those interviews! Remember: "Luck is where practice meets opportunity."

In this video we cover a fun algorithm: max character (letter) count! This algorithm is also far easier once we learned the string breakdown technique/tool/pattern from the previous video in this playlist. From there, we have to find a way to loop through our character breakdown object (char map) and then we need to keep track of which character and its appearance count/value appear the most. We achieve this with a shorthand for...in loop, a few variables, and an if statement. Rock on coders!
