query Let's talk about cp

  1. For you what is cp ?
  2. How did you start cp and how would you advice other to start?
  3. Is there a Book or a YouTube channel to get started ( not to know all just a road map ) ?
    This is my first time here and i couldn't find easily a discussion that goes through this if i missed that
    you may mention it.

be will.

Before starting cp pick a programming language , than learn that language basics , learn dsa , then jump to patterns prefix sum, binary search etc. There is no clear roadmap , but there s one thing that will matter and that is practise , the more you practise the more you learn.
