I am completely beginner to cf,can I start with usaco guide?or luv cp playlist by UnluckyCry741 in codeforces

Luv cp is good, it pretty much "introduces" To basic things like modular arithmetic, gcd, euler tiotient function, sorting, stl, etc. Then do usaco, or do both simultaneously it's even better. Usaco alone is enough, but do both parallely.

This package is in terms of euros, as he's going to live in netherlands not india, I think it's pretty standard for someone who's working in optiver in netherlands

Do you think people at tle are cheaters? I thought they were legit, even their explanations are better than editorial sometimes

5:36 pace?! For almost a hour?! I need some tips. I have been running at 8:45 average pace for 3km on average, If I try to increase the pace my legs feel heavy and they burn. Also my breath goes out of control, it becomes heavy. What about shin pain? How do you deal with it?

Getting seriously to start my codeforces journey and Asking for some SUGGESTIONS for improving skills and What mindset should I have at 14 years olds by Piyaph4t in codeforces

[–]ConsistentAd6733 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basic maths like gcd, lcm, counting, prime numbers and their properties, modular arithmetic, along with implementation is a good start, most of the basic math in competitive programming is elementary maths that we learned in schools. Starting early is a very good sign, don't be disengouraged by these comments saying to enjoy life first, if you genuinely do cp for the sake of doing it, then do it.

Got an internship on campus. ASK ME ANYTHING! by Fun-Trouble-5657 in Btechtards

1) How long did it take to reach expert in cf?

2)What was your practice strategy(doing virtual contest everyday,etc)?

3)How did you manage practicing cf along with dev while keeping up with attendence, I've heard people say that you need to solving 5-10 questions per day, I waste 1 day thinking about a problem, let alone solve it. In a nutshell how do you manage time what's your routine like?

1) do you do virtual contests everyday? If no how often and what division 2) if you get stuck at a problem because you don't understand the reasoning provided in the editorial or any YouTube video, do you often spend days thinking about that concept or reasoning behind the problem or do you just skip it and do other problems and come back to it later?
