Are you want to be a competitive programmer?
Your coding skill, practice, focus, consistency define you as a competitive programmer.
I am also a programmer. I started my journey when I was in the second year of my engineering and now I am a final year student.
I had lots of questions in my mind when I started. I borrowed lots of books from the library and those books were tremendously difficult to understand in the beginning.
when I was a beginner I didn’t know where to start?
how to start? how many hours should I give to my code?
what to read? which language should I prefer to code?
if you are also dealing with these questions in your brain then don’t worry,
These questions will automatically vanish as you start learning and practicing I will give you some suggestions which will help you to be the best competitive programmer.
These terminologies make you an unbeatable programmer.
beginning
patience
practice
focus
firstly, understand the problem, read it until u got it.
when u understand the question then move towards the solution.
draw a figure of its solution and then make an algorithm.
if u don’t know how to write an algorithm then study it.
I will recommend you a book, “ The Algorithm Design Manual” written by STEVEN S.SKIENA.
After writing an algorithm start writing a code in a notebook
and write multiple test cases and execute them in a notebook, it will help u a lot. Then use any software for the execution of what you want.
Whenever you solve a question, look at the clock to see how much time you have given to this question, because it will help you with your analysis.
Start with simple questions. Make a note of much of everything. How many questions have you solved in a day?
Build a project with as much as you have learned. I also made lots of projects using the C language. My one project is about lights which turned the lights on and off in my room.
The main thing always keeps your self always motivated.
Learn as much as you can and try to make multiple solutions to one question. Always try to find solutions that reduce the complexity of time and space.
Thank u.
