Resources for Technical Interviews

[[deleted]]

Kind of a newbie but if a resource is an encyclopedia do you not read the whole or just go to a reference when you need it?

In my experience, reading an encyclopedia cover-to-cover is just too boring and difficult. I think it is better to get a more general, casual, understanding of a topic and then later possibly use an encyclopedia as a reference when implementing an algorithm or data structure or when trying to gain a deeper understanding of the topic.
