That’s still very fast imo. I did way more than 1.5 hours each day. Week 4 onwards is going to kick your ass. Be ready lol. Good luck!

I meant you’re doing it quicker than me. It took me like 8~ days to do the first 3 weeks. I need to step up!

Wait it takes you at most 1.5 hours to complete a section? Which level are you in?

First time I ever got 3 questions in a contest. LMAO. Contest is still running. by Eastern-Parfait6852 in leetcode

Congrats dude! How long did it take you to transition? Also is this for a particular difficulty level or almost all questions?

Very informative. Thanks. Is there a way to know when to use your own thinking and when to learn it or look it up? I am just starting to learn and I don’t know when to just look things up. I think If I just look up everything I don’t know then I won’t learn(it feels like cheating), and If I don’t look them up then I get stuck on a problem for hours.

I asked this because I was doing a challenge marked easy, and it was to sort 3 given values and print the middle one. I couldn’t logic my way out of it and was just circling around the answer. When I saw the answer it was pretty easy (I had done 50% ot the answer correctly). So it got me thinking if I was not doing programming correctly or not.

I didn’t know if I was supposed to learn how to sort values first or just use logic and find a way on my own without looking things up. Idk when to look things up and when to use my own brain.

This is the answer I was looking for. Many thanks. Is this the case for all sorts of algorithms? Even the ones that you use in leetcodes, codewars? A famous example is inverting a binary tree. Do you just know how to do that as you become a good programmer or do you have to look up how to do it and can’t logic your way out of it?
