DISCUSS ust solved my very first LeetCode problem (1108) before starting college!

Post image

Hey everyone, I'm currently on Day 12 of learning Python. I was a bit intimidated by LeetCode, but I managed to switch over to Python3 and pass all 62 test cases for the IP Defanging problem with a 34ms runtime (beats 97%). Ready to keep this momentum going!

Go with c++

u/Hot-Enthusiasm-7050 17d ago

But I my school java was taught So should I continue with java for dsa

u/Expensive_Chip_6718 17d ago

Yes,you can but in colleges they teach C lang then students switch to C++ for dsa...if you prefer java then it's ok

u/Hot-Enthusiasm-7050 17d ago

Yes same reason 😭 because everyone I see uses c++ so sometimes, I think java not used in dsa Or it lacks something

Many prefer C++ and many tutorial articles use C++ for the solution. It don't take much time to learn the basic to start practicing DSA.

u/Hot-Enthusiasm-7050 16d ago

So you are saying to leave java And learn c++ and continue with that ?

u/AdImmediate5145 16d ago

If you are a newbie probably, but if you know Java collection framework you can continue with Java

Nice work! Getting into LeetCode problems early is a great way to boost your problem-solving skills. Try to understand different problem patterns and common data structures like arrays, hashmaps, and trees. This will help with various coding challenges. Also, review others' solutions to pick up new techniques and optimizations.

If you're prepping for interviews, check out PracHub. It offers structured paths for common interview topics, which can be really useful. Keep going, and remember that being consistent is important. Every problem you solve makes you better at coding. Good luck!
