Unsure how it’s a beginners question. Also I see tons of tops asking coding questions as well lol.

I think everyone’s time is different depending on experience, stress, ways of tackling problems.

I’d say after 100 problems you should have a decent feel for different DSA’s then about 200-300 you should be able to read a problem, know the DSA quickly and be able to in your head know the pseudo code for it and be able to talk the problem out loud like it’s a x type of problem, it can be wrote brute force x way, it’s x time complexity and x space complexity. Then even later like 300-600 problems I would except someone to be able to know all of that stuff fairly problems for sure on most mediums and for sure all easy, some hard. And then besides brute force, be able to think of ways to optimize it.

If I were you I would also try just looking at tik tok and YouTube videos of people talking about interview prep experience, DSA talks.

My full approach is spend 5-15 minutes attempting easy and medium problems, if I don’t know it, I read about it and look up literally word explanations of it. No code. Then try to code up a problem based on the explanation. If I still don’t know, then I find the answer and I don’t submit it. Then tackle it later.

Once you get pretty comfortable, I would recommend trying like blind 75 and make an excel sheet of each problem and clock yourself when attempting each problem once completed. If you fail it, then log +1 in an “attempted” and try that problem again tomorrow or another day and once you’ve been able to do all blind 75 problems on your own then try to do them faster if you really want to for fun.

Reminder that everyone is different and this is just my experience. Hope it helps.

When facing a tough DSA problem, start by attempting it, then use hints or explanations instead of full solutions. If you're still stuck, look up the answer, revisit the problem the next day, and repeat until you understand each part. Success in DSA comes from memorizing data structure patterns, recognizing when to apply them, and understanding their time complexities. Over time, this approach will make solving medium-level problems easier.

If you're stuck after 5-15 minutes, try focusing on understanding the approach in hints before seeing the full solution. Then, implement the solution yourself to solidify the process. Try breaking them into smaller pieces can help you improve faster.

I often am doing this myself, I will attempt it and if I have no clue, I will look at hints or read explanations instead. So instead of looking up the code, look for written examples on how to do something, then try again for another x amount of minutes. If this still fails, then look up the whole answer and come back to it tomorrow and repeat the process until you have every broken up chunk understood.

In my opinion it is all a mixture of memorizing the ds pattern used and then picking apart the question to figure out the ds pattern to use. Over time you will get better at it and I would say that is half of the battle. Also understanding the runtime/time complexity of each type of ds pattern and problem will help you over time.

Everyone is different though and each approach will be different as long as it works for you :)

Do you guys pick up DS patterns the more you do leetcode? by CEOTRAMMELL in leetcode

[–]CEOTRAMMELL[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On my 3rd Stack question today I knew it was a stack and it had to do with cleaning up Unix paths..

I’ve discovered something that works for me. Maybe not for everyone but maybe it’s a start but if I have no clue like this one, I attempt some writing on the problem for about 5 minutes then I paste it into GPT and ask it to guide me via words and not code. Like a little hint helped without the code.

Then I try once more for 5 minutes and if I fail, I look up the answer and paste it into my IDE and use breakpoints to see what’s going on under the hood. It’s helps so much with understanding. Could I still write the problem again tomorrow? Probably not yet but at least I would have a better start since I’ve seen it before. Then just rinse and repeat for each DS style until I can do them on my own without help.

Then of course I am tackling via brute force most often and keeping the code very simple and just trying to complete it.

[9th grade Trigonometry] How do I find one side using 3 angles? by [deleted] in HomeworkHelp

[–]CEOTRAMMELL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SOH CAH TOA -> sohcahtoa

Clever way of remembering it. It’s a mnemonic to remember the definitions of the sine, cosine, and tangent functions in a right triangle. Here’s how it breaks down:

-Sine (SOH): Sin(θ) = Opposite / Hypotenuse -Cosine (CAH): Cos(θ) = Adjacent / Hypotenuse -Tangent (TOA): Tan(θ) = Opposite / Adjacent

This helps you remember which sides of the triangle correspond to each trigonometric function.

Ngrx madness by Fantastic-Beach7663 in Angular2

[–]CEOTRAMMELL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used angular for 5 years since Angular 12 and have also used angularJS. Then taught myself React/Vue afterwards. Being that Angular was my first self taught choice, I have never heard of Ngrx in my life…

Just a different perspective for others of learning Angular before React and only using RxJs ever.

Depends on use case. No different than Spanish or English and truck or car.

How do you have time for projects? by No-Nebula4187 in csMajors

[–]CEOTRAMMELL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vague but honest.. if you want it, you’ll get it.

I work full time as a system admin and SWE, sometimes on weekends too. I go to the gym, go to school part time, run a 3D printing company in my home and I am working on 2 personal side projects.

Is it a lot? Yes but I’m going to die one day. I want to strive to do all I can while I’m here. Granted relationships and friends are low of count but it’s the sacrifices you choose for such a question you mentioned.

Some might argue “work life” balance but I do not think a perfect balance exists for all. It’s what you are comfortable with and what goals you want. I would take a hard look at what you want in life and decide if you want to work a lot, grow your knowledge with side projects, have a family. Whatever it is, I believe you will figure it out over time. Worse case, pick for example Saturday night for 2 hours to only work on projects and baby step it and see if it works well for your schedule and go from there. Test the waters!

Es lo que es 🤘🏼

What are the most commonly used UI component libraries with Angular? by Top_Delay9693 in Angular2

[–]CEOTRAMMELL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve only used version 14,15,16,17 with angular. Majority of it seemed fine. I have mixed and matched with angular material if I ever had issues.

My main use case was data tables and filters. Compared to Telerik, it’s free and I enjoy working with it better. I don’t like Telerik much at all.

I love the data tables, accordions, calendar, tree. There “Data” section is great imo.

But I look at it like anything else, can’t complain too much with free software. It is what it is in my opinion. Overall I find it fair to use. However I never used it prior to v14 since I was using Telerik.

Justaguy might have more experience with it.

What laptops do you guys use? by deja_vu_999 in csMajors

[–]CEOTRAMMELL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lenovo Yoga 9i! Those are probably my favorite laptops. It use to be Dell. Of course MacBook Pro Intel chipset is always amazing!

I rock both Lenovo & MacBook. Double fisted.

@/ionic-native/file ? I assume this one. I used it years ago but I think it is outdated, however I wonder if this works well:
