If you are looking for a Software development job in #FAANG. Then, you must be aware…………..!!! Sorry Sorry, not just aware but be master of Data structure and algorithm.

So, why to wait, what the heck Data structure and algorithm. But, before dive directly into Data structure and algorithms. You should know at least one programming language as without implementation, it is just crap.

As there are no restrictions on programming language, I highly suggest picking JAVA as your Programming language. Why I am advocating JAVA because I created JAVA. Just a joke.

So, Most of the popular books I found around on Data structure and algorithms. They mainly implement the code in Java only.

I recently started implementing the code in Java. Although, I heavily rely on Python for coding Data structure and algorithm.

There are two main books, I suggest to follow.

1. https://www.amazon.in/Cracking-Coding-Interview-Programing-Questions/dp/0984782850
2. https://www.amazon.in/Algorithms-Robert-Sedgewick/dp/032157351X

For Ubuntu user. Follow the following link to install java from scratch.
