I solved 541 Leetcode problems. But you need only 150.

1. How to use Leetcode effectively?
2. How to learn Data Structures and Algorithms?
3. How to use Leetcode solutions?
4. Whether to use Python for Leetcode?
5. How to crack coding interview?

I will answer all these questions in this video.

The humor in this video is top tier and the fact that you’re delivering it with a straight face makes it even better

[malikau]

“If you didn’t do it in one hour - Stop solving and check how others solved this” this is the best advice on this topic for me!

[aishwaryshukla]

The key takeaway for me in this video is to think first about the solution approach and then think how to code. Although I know this, and I try to think of an approach before coding, I still end up thinking about how I will code. This video was a reminder about keep focusing on the approach first. I am a beginner coder, and it gives me immense relief to hear from you that with practice, I'll be able to differentiate between the two. Thanks for this gem of a video! Saving it 🙏🏻

What set your content apart is your honesty. Everything you said make sense unlike other YouTubers. Keep it up ❤

[thejavachip]

This is what most of us need, not the person who always knew what is the path and what needs to be done, but the person who was left alone in the darkness and had to struggle to find the path to the victory.
I can totally relate with you I am in the same struggling phase as you were in the beginning of your journey. Every time I watch you I feel like if he can do it I can do it too.

[norvusordoseclorum]

I think one of the reasons people love your content is because you are so honest about your journey

[yashnegi]

I always hated coding but not slowly slowly building habits to learn it in an enjoyable way and then also seeing your videos so I don't lose hope. Maybe today is not my time to shine but tomorrow will be. Never lose hope. Keep making videos.

SUMMARY:
• Solve all 37 easy problems first and then move to medium and then difficult in the 150 top interview problems
• First try to think about the solution and then jumping into coding part. In interviews coding rarely takes 15 minutes of time but major part goes in thinking. It may take 100 questions to practice this or 500 for some.
• In interviews you are given 45 minutes to solve a question so even in practise, if you are not close to the solution in 1 hour then see the solution
• Check atleast top 3 solution by sorting by most votes because sometimes the top solution is not practical for the interviews.
• Try to understand the solution instead of memorizing it
• And go to the editor, try to write the solution on your own, even if it is the exact same code that you just read and then re-do it after few days completely on your own
• Even if you did the question on your own, go read the others’ solutions to find an optimized solution. ( In sir’s opinion, if you wrote more than 20 lines of code for a question then there is a possibility of better existing solutions)
• If you can solve a medium leetcode problems in 30-35 minutes then you are ready to go as mostly coding interviews are 45 minutes long and you are given a medium level question from pov of leetcode.

This is the video that gave me the courage to start with the dreaded leetcode. This video had everything I needed. I finally have a game plan. Thanks a lot.

[generalsourabh]

i am reALLY SUPRISED how he softly and clearly spoke everything. i really liked the way he explained and I can relate this 100%

[ricardo]

It is really surprising to realize how we all started in the same place. I remember struggling with even the first coding challenge and thinking whether there was something wrong with spending hours on the easiest problem and still not even understanding it. Today I can confidently say I have progressed a lot as a programmer, but videos like this help beginners to set realistic expectations and to continue pushing forward

[jamjam]

Yes! I spent even days on just a single question just because I felt so bad I couldn't solve. For most, I eventually solve them but with worse time and space complexities. Thanks so much for your advice!

[ryankhart]

lol I relate so much with that story in the beginning! I felt so bad about myself that I put off applying for an internship for 2+ years after I've already done all of my coursework for my Bachelor's degree, essentially dropping out.

It seemed to start when the only success stories that I ever heard from other students were that they had to submit over 200 applications before finally getting a response, and they already had a few substantial personal projects in their portfolio. Plus, they could solve these coding interview questions in 15 minutes for what would take me 6 hours.

Then I went to one of the in-person college presentation events and saw more capstones and internships that sound like something I could do than those that went over my head. Maybe it's just that those students aren't generally going around humble bragging to their friends in the room nearby to me. I don't even want to work for a FAANG company anyway. I want to have a healthy work life balance.

[abdulmuqtadir]

You're godsend. I made my first leetcode submission today and you drop this ♥️

[wisdomkhan]

What a superb video. This is the first guide on DSA that I find relatable and sensible.

[jefferychen]

Exactly the THREE mistakes I'm taking currently! Lucky enough to be a beginner and see your video. Thanks!

[MrDaniyalAh]

You are the only honest YouTube speaker who gives actually useful advice. I have been loving your videos, going to watch all of them soon. Love from Pakistan

[ryancraigdavis]

I don’t often comment on videos but this was the perfect advice. I’ve had the same issues with trying to practice and this just makes sense. I’m acruelly excited to start studying again!

[ankitkumarjain]

I am so happy to have stumbled upon your channel. Your suggestions are awesome and you sound so genuine. Thanks

[nikhilsahni]

That's the strategy I was seeking most of the time. Thank you for this 😇
