Everyone needs a working code in the first attempt and that two proper and optimised.
But DSA round I believe comes with luck based factor. You need to be lucky enough to get a question which you have done or seen before.
Or have yourself updated with each structure and almost every type of problem.
Fucked up and interview today.
Haters gonna hate ,but one who can do DSA can do other parts of the job pretty easily
😂😂 there are many who can’t do anything outside of the DSA bubble, they don’t understand computer fundamentals? UDP TCP? They have no idea what all these are!
It is about the ability to do things. You think one who solves 1600-1800 cf problems can't understand TCP,UDP when they study it.
Start looking for patterns. If you learn DSA with patterns, like two pointer, slow and fast pointers, sliding window, 0/1 knapsack, coin change, largest common subsequence, merge intervals, two heaps, depth first search, breadth first search, etc., then it'll become easier to solve questions. Use ChatGPT to your advantage here, it can come up with good ways to spot a pattern.
Mere se aaj DP ka question poocha.
I was correct formula wise and approach wise, but maine non dp se kaafi alag pseudo code likha.
As long as it works, it should be fine. There are some problems which work with a dp approach, but you can solve them better using sliding window technique for example. What is this question any?
It's all luck I tell you. I have given 6 interviews in the past 1.5months. DSA round is just pure luck.
@iuc abhi kaun sa sde h tu Amazon me, sde 2? Aur CTC batana?
I got burned in Uber. DSA round 2 was shit. I claim the question was incorrect. The Design coding was good. I passionately hate it like I hated memorizing Rhymes in Nursery school.
DSA round ( Leetcode style ) is an excuse to reject candidates when there are too many in the pool.
Good coding/problem solving rounds check the candidate's ability to keep up with everyday work possibly with the knowledge of all the best practices.
If the problems asked in the interview are the ones being solved by the company/team as well, we'd have flying cars out by now.
I just think we should skip DSA rounds for existing FAANG employees.
I understand the importance of DSA rounds and is pretty much required for SDE 1 roles as their major work is to code. But for higher levels, it starts becoming less an...
