Journey of a Red Coder from IIT Kharagpur | International Master(2300+) Codeforces | 7 star Codechef
Рет қаралды 178,935
Күн бұрынIn today's podcast, we sat down with ACM ICPC World Finalist Vivek Gupta, a 5th year Dual Degree student from IIT Kharagpur. He's an International Master(2300+) at Codeforces as well as a 7 star(Red) on Codechef. He also done Internships at Google and Adobe, and received a PPO from Google.
We talked about his Journey in Competitive Programming, how he started, what are the problems he faced during his Journey to becoming the Best. We also discussed about some common problems(and possible solutions) that people face while doing Competitive Programming, and he also gave some tips and tricks to people who want to reach his level at CP, and become a red coder.
Part-2 related to Tips on ACM ICPC from a World Finalist, coming really soon.
Vivek's startup:
AlgoZenith empowers students and professionals to learn Algorithmic Problem Solving, helps them get offers from top product-based companies, and perform better in Competitive programming.

Question : Can a person learn by just looking at the solutions? Asking because with so many websites and thousands of problems on these web sites can one learn by coding a few important questions and just learning from the remaining just by directly looking at the answers?
@GeekyBaller 3 жыл бұрын
I would definitely not recommend this. Looking at the question, thinking about a solution and coming up with the code is very different than just looking at the solutions. Your brain is not doing any work when you're just looking at the solutions. What will happen when you do this, is that when you're facing any new kind of a problem which you've not seen previously, you'll have problems coming up with a solution.
