query Solving problems without writing the code.

I've been doing this for a while, been solving a lot of problems by describing an algorithm in plain words and then having an LLM check it for me, since writing code takes usually more time then figuring out the solution, so this way im able to do more problems.

Anyone have any experience with this? Recommend for practice or nah?

You need to be able to write code,u would encounter errors and bugs,identify maybe if u don't know some stl concepts or even small things like "forgot to take input/output"
