Ways Of Improving Algorithmic Problem Solving Skill

To improve your programming skills you need to write programs every day. While doing that, you need to study how your code will work internally (inside the CPU). This will help you to make better and more efficient codes. My advice would be to focus on understanding the ideas very deeply. A lot of people focus too heavily on the mechanical details of an algorithm without sufficiently understanding the thought process behind it. Challenge yourself to think deeply and really understand why an algorithm is designed the way it is, whether it can be generalized to solve related problems, and what its limitations, edge cases, and degenerate cases are. I would recommend the value of learning object-oriented concepts, agile software development techniques, design patterns, and other “higher level” more abstract concepts. If you’re focused entirely on being the best “algorithmic programmer” possible, then you risk “missing the boat” in other areas, like database normalization and object-oriented design, that are generally more important, in most software development contexts.
