The unfair way I got good at Leetcode

[@LeesaLilHop]

“I wasnt bad, I was just getting started” needed that! Thank you!

[@turkyturky6274]

The hard thing about leetcode for me isn't the problems, its being out of practice and having to grind it all over again, in case i get laid off again. You gotta keep practicing over and over again go be competitive. Its kind of like weightlifting,if you stop you lose strength,if you stop you forget how to solve some of these or you're not fast enough.

True, though you will ramp up more quickly after the first time you went through the prep

The "1 year" practice period is really illuminating. Thanks for sharing that! I was always wondering how I can be good at it in 2-3 months, the job seeking window. Now I see. It is something that I need to persist over 1 year.

We know so much but in that moment of pressure our brain literally turns into a potato. The only way is to solve your questions with a timer or some external pressure. It can really help with increasing the pressure and also help us waste less time. if you cannot solve within the time period defined then go to the solution and do what the video says. Best of luck for your journey

[@jesterthelegend926]

Studying solutions that are done well is actually good advice. I've spent actual days trying to figure out how to solve a problem that I didn't have the knowledge to do. Instead of looking things up I tried to solve it on my own which got me no where and was a waste of time in hind sight. Studying a good solution for the problem taught me so much more than pulling my hair out for hours.

[@user-bt6mh9ez3u]

This was actually helpful.When I first started,I thought I was just dumb enough and could not solve any questions. Nobody ever elaborated on the fact you stated that in the beginning, you need to learn the pattern and logic of the solution.That's why I just gave up in starting itself.But now I understood and started my journey to coding again . Thanks to you.

Got my first job out of college with a small company (25 employees or less) and have been there ever since (6 years this May), and I've gotta say, I absolutely dread the day I need to move on to another job with how ridiculous the space has become with often very long and drawn out interviews asking you to do leetcode questions on a whiteboard when you'll likely never use it on the job itself. Especially now that it's not JUST the FANNG companies employing these types of interviews - it's bleeding into the smaller lesser known companies as well and it's just insane to think you need to do some shit like this for a year (while currently being employed working full time) to pass some weird gatekeeper-like interview. I've been a successful software dev for just about 6 years now and can only imagine the amount of people who would be fully qualified for the job they're interviewing for just to be passed over due to a lack of leetcode grinding to the point where it's not really even about skill as a programmer and more about memorization. Memorization does not make someone a good programmer. /endrant

[@billyfigueroa1617]

Amazing video. Not only is the content great but the presentation also Learning PATTERNS is what I have realized is SUPER IMPORTANT because a lot of times for someone on the front end like my self it will be a strong array or map question and learning 2 pointers and sliding window is very important there as well as sub sections like static sliding window and dynamic sliding window What sucks about this though for a react dev Ike me is you also have to know react and a bunch of other front end related questions that have nothing to do with algorithms because some companies actually interview you for the work they do and if they don’t need high performance logic much then all that time spent on leetcode can be a negative if you didn’t also focus on the tech you program in daily

[@daveburji]

Thank you!

[@londenis]

Everyone has their preferred way to prepare. If you are very short on time - this is indeed the best way. It’s the same approach you’d use to pass an exam. Study answers and should you encounter a similar enough question - you’ll be able to solve it based on your memory. The biggest downside here is that with each question, you are discarding an opportunity to improve general technical problem solving. My recommendation would be to try to solve the question yourself first, but time box it to 20-40 minutes. If you were not able to solve the question within time limit. Then look at solution, study it and find out what are the things that stood in the way of you getting the right answer - this is the important part. Did you get tunnel visioned on specific data structure? Did you not consider a multi pass approach? Did you make wrong assumption about optimal time complexity? Figure out a way to make sure this doesn’t derail you again. Then move on to the next question. With each new question your “weaknesses” shouldn’t be repeating themselves - if they do - it’s likely that you are not improving your general problem solving. You can still pass a lot of interviews based on good memory and pattern recognition. But ideally you want to train for more general problem solving too.

tbh hearing it took a year of practising for leetcode to get good is incredibly disheartening to hear as an experienced software engineer. not because it should take you less but rather because that is a HUGE waste of a person's free time that should be spent gaining real experience in a real job. it's a sad state of affairs that newcomers (and often seniors) must be subjected to such arbitrary tests just to land jobs doing fairly standard cookie cutter software development work on the other end.

make sure you take enough and think enough tries to solve problem. If you cant still solve it, then move on to solution. If you just move on to solution, the thing is not every solution is same even the pattern is similar. The concept of approaching in each problem is different and thats the idea where you had to gain in hard way no matter what. Think enough and shake your brain enough to make your brain smarter

Thank you for giving me permission to look at solutions first as a beginner. I will say, it works.

The advice was prob one of the best so far. After a year and a half in the industry i still cant solve a lot of them off the top of my head but its mostly the syntax and not the thought process of how I'm gonna get to the answer. My solurions are no where near elegant but i always have some idea how to start solving a problem. it just worries me whether or not id have to look up the exact syntax or how a particular class works.

One of things I don't see a lot but I feel is kinda important: to tinker with the solutions. This is how I approach: -> Try all approaches until I no longer can think of any way. If for the last 5-10 mins I can't think of a solution, I goto the solutions/discussions tab. The method name is mentioned in the heading of most solutions. Then, I tried to implement the same method on that question on my own. If I still can't figure it out, I view the code in the solutions tab. Copy-Paste, understand the code, dry-run and then tinker with the code. Tinkering is kinda important because it forces u to understand the code before changing anything. Even for questions I am not able to solve in contests, I do the same. It helped me no idea if it works for anybody else.

Learning solutions is not necessarily the best nor the funnest way to get good. If you have to land a job in a month, sure, you can reach average in just that time. But if you want to excell you have to constantly practice finding new patterns by yourself. So that when there is no answer on stack exchange for your very specific problem, you are confident that you will come up with it and post it yourself. This is what sepparates a genius mathematician from a phd, the phd will solve almost any problem because he is familiar with the patterns, but the genius even if not quick at solving known problems will come up with solutions for new ones.

[@ComradeOgilvy1984]

Dave's point about not worrying about optimal solution is true, but if you are hitting TLE it means your solution is probably a bit too "brute force" (with rare exceptions). I understand the frustration, but I would suggest you reframe the TLE. What it means is you have a good grasp of the basics of the problem, as you (presumably) have a solution that could be used. Now you are very well prepared to understand other ways of attacking the same problem. Look at the other people's solutions or the Editorial solutions, and enjoy learning from them. And, as Dave said, do not obsess about the absolute most efficient solution. Find a good solution that seems like a useful pattern, that would not be difficult to apply to other similar problems. Study that one well.

[@jedi4049]

As a student just coming out of college I dont think its fair to be thrown leetcode problems for an entry level position. Its about what you can learn not memorizing problems under a timed clock.
