#OneYearCodingPlan : Month 1

In this article, we’ll discuss time & space complexity, arrays, and strings, for coding interviews. Before we begin, I’d like to discuss the structure that I’ll try to follow in my blogs.

Format:

  1. Topic overview and Learning Timeline to be followed.
  2. Resources to understand the topic and practice questions.
  3. Interview tips.

Disclaimer — One month is the worst possible deadline you can have for these topics, you have to wrap this up in a month(remember sticking to the plan?), and you can (and should) try to finish early, by spending more time per day, especially on weekends, and jumping to the next topic, especially if you have a coding background and feel confident about these topics. The OneYearPlan can be scrunched down to a 12-week plan if you have prior experience or tighter deadlines. However, don’t try to rush if you have time, you should preferably do projects, research, or gain experience on the side if you have extra time.

It is extremely important to understand time and space complexities because they help you judge how good your solution…
