Data Structures and Algorithms

2 years ago | The Missing CS Degree

Many people are interviewing these days and you really, really should know the basics if you expect to do well. You'll find that here with common data structures and algorithms.

🙌🏼 Thanks for signing up to the blog!

Here are 9 videos (out of 34) from the Computer Science Fundamentals course that you can find here on my blog. I made these videos to complement the book, and I also added a few things that weren't in the book... but that made me kind of happy.

Here's a tip: pay good attention to tree traversal stuff! I've interviewed at Google 3 times over my career, and the first two featured two tree questions apiece.

Enjoy!

There are a lot of opinions about AI, whether it helps or hinders our coding process and our team in general. Many are concerned that junior devs will be the ones impacted the most.

Following Your Imagination

I learned to play ice hockey when I was 11 and, as a kid from Southern California, it wasn't easy. I learned how to skate and how to play the game at the same time, all while going through a massive growth spurt. My sister once called me a "baby giraffe on a frozen lake". Nice.

It wasn't what you said, but how you said it

I make videos for a living and I swear: each one is an adventure. You would think I would have a system down by now but, as it turns out, each video is a unique thing that demands it's own type of story telling.
