Can anyone share the link of the foundation test or the name of the questions asked …?

  1. Pick a language (C++ / Python / Java)

  2. Start doing adhoc problems for 2 - 3 months . This will make you think like a programmer and you will be able to understand how to approach a problem . Practice Hackerrank implementation questions in this phase .

  3. Start practicing datastructures and its standard problems from geeks for geeks.

  4. Start practicing algorithms and its standard problems from geeks for geeks .

  5. During phase -3 and phase -4 , if you want to give contests , then participate in them but don’t expect an improvement at the moment .

  6. Try to understand the crux of every DS & Algo .

  7. Then start participating in the contests and learn the new concepts parallelly .

I solved all 5 of 5 :stuck_out_tongue: last one (HACKME) was a dp question. I used a similar approach as CIRMERGE from July Long

If anyone wants, i can recreate and explain my solution :slightly_smiling_face:

Is there a way that i can see my submission?

Nah bro. Codechef thing was fine because they added extra time. All good. The centre problem was different for us.

YES…:sweat_smile:

Well, you and I both need to practice more problems. I don’t know why and how, but I couldn’t solve more than 1.5 questions, maybe I panicked cause of the time limit or maybe I missed something mentioned in the question or maybe it was just another bad day. I spent an hour in solving SIGFPE error in the 4th question (only the first test case passed), and I was missing a corner case in the first question. Never bothered to read the last one. Guess I’m no more proud to be a 4 star.
