Learn Python and Algorithm Using TopCoder - 1
This post is for beginners in algorithm and people who know python basic syntax. I am a beginner also.
TopCoder hosts fortnightly online competitive programming competitions — kwon as SRMs or “single round matches” — as well as weekly competitions in graphic design and development. (wiki)
We will focus on SRM. Briefly put, we will solve past algorithm problems. And I will refer to a book. Just follow me with your computer.
Start TopCoder
- Join topcode



- Go to topcoder ARENA(you can solve problems in this page)



We have done for diving the algorithm and python word.
Let’s practice first problem.
- search “KiwiJuiceEasy” and click!

Topcoder presents a problem statement, definition, limits, constraints, and example. Then definition include a class name, a method name, a return type, and argument types.
In my case, first I read a problem and think think think. Second I check definition and then start coding. If the problem is ambiguous, I check examples.
Try to solve this problem! Next time I will show you my code(or book’s code) and python tips.
+ I am not a native english speaker. Therefore, my posts have error. :)
+ I love feedback
