Daily dose of Code !!

"Code a problem daily."

Something which I always like to do till now but couldn't able to do it since past 3-4 years.

Years passed away. Covid has become our new normal. 

Whenever I open Linkedin, I see many posts related to daily coding challenges in Leetcode by recent graduates, Linkedin connections

Few of my friends were doing the similar thing which they like, “Painting/Drawing Daily”. This gave me inspiration and good push up.

Leetcode was very Interesting. Here is what I have done in the past 3 months

April, May: 

1. Try to open leetcode and at least read the problem
2. I have solved few problems but couldn't catch up solving daily
3. Debug and solve problems using IDE

June:

1. I tried to open leetcode daily and solve it. 
2. I was able to know my strengths.
3. I couldn't solve few questions at all. 
4. Referred online videos to get the algorithm or Logic behind the problem
5. I solved few, I wasn't able to solve few even after that. I never gave up. Finally I was able to submit 27/30 problems in June

What is something which I liked in Leetcode? 

• Acceptance Rate: For every wrong submission, acceptance rate gets decreased which reminds you to be cautious before submitting a solution

What I have stopped doing:

• Solving and debugging the problem in IDE

What I have started doing:

• Use as many print statements to debug the code
• Run as many custom test cases by my own
• Get grip over functions and syntaxes without intellisense. Compile till it gets successful.

I was happy for the effort that I have put in June month despite busy and hectic working hours, I know that I am not up to the mark, but the learning was constant and hoping the same continues

Happy coding
