Coding Challenge (Round 2)

Posted by Colorful on September 21, 2017October 3, 2017

So I have “solved”(attempted) 90/91 algorithms since I began this journey a few weeks ago.

Here is the youtube video that expands on/compliments this blog post. At the time of the video I only solved 85. At the time of writing this post, I am at 91.

20 CodeWars (7 kyu)

10 Interview Cake

5 LeetCode

5 Firecode

8 Cracking the Coding Interview

3 Independent (Lucky Number, Happy Number, Return index)

Currently I am implementing the core algorithms 5x each to better understand them and recognize them in problems. Also the Linked List Chapter that I finished in CTCI kicked my butt.

For round 3 I am doing implementations, 10 blog posts of former algorithms I have solved that I need to better understand, 3 interviewing.io and 9 codewars to get to 100 (my original goal). I’m now aiming for 200 algorithms. After that I’m applying my butt off to jobs. Okay Deuces!
