If you've never been shockingly joyful and surprised at a wonderful experience, after going through with something you weren't really sure about, you've led a boring and predictable life.

Semi interesting article. But remember folks, Wealth ≠ success. Smart ≠ wealth.

A readable, sensible, step-by-step solution — After a break, I started teaching myself more of Python by taking on data structure and algorithms questions on Leetcode. The reverse an integer one is one I thought would be simple enough to dive back in. I chose to write about this question because, while simple, there are many…

A Step-by-Step Guide with Code Walk Through In this Leetcode problem, we’re told that we’re given an ordered array of positive integers that has some missing numbers as input, along with a number (k). Our task: find the kth missing number in that input array. Sounds more complicated than it…

Remember those edge cases! While this problem might not be too difficult at first glance, I believe the main lesson of it is dealing with edge cases. The problem states that we’ll get a string of upper/lower case alphabet characters, along with white spaces. …

Applying separation of concerns concepts and backtrack recursion After bootcamp graduation I spent a lot of time learning CS fundamentals, data structures and algorithms. And while I have seen and solved problems using recursion before (hello binary search tree traversals!) this was the first time I encountered a problem where…

I’m a visual learner and thinker. So let’s tackle this leetcode problem in a non-esoteric way. Problem Statement Pretty simple when it’s not in mathy/code speak: we’re given one number (n) and another number (k). We have to return the kth factor of n. …

I was recently solving a problem, where one of the sub problems to solve was finding the second largest number in an array of integers. I’m humble enough to admit it: I froze for a bit. I know the typical methods for moving/returning at the start and end we use…

A guide to solving LeetCode #46: Permutations If you’re reading this, I reckon that, like me, you were having difficulty solving this LeetCode problem. Or, also like me, you want to lean into understanding recursion better. This is the post for you. …
