1 00:00:00,170 --> 00:00:06,080 Welcome to the world's best Algorithms and Data Structures bootcamp. 2 00:00:06,610 --> 00:00:14,530 Once you get a coding interview for your dream software engineering role, what matters or what determines 3 00:00:14,530 --> 00:00:17,500 whether you get the job is not your resume. 4 00:00:17,500 --> 00:00:19,150 It's not your colidx grades. 5 00:00:19,150 --> 00:00:22,960 It's going to be only your performance in the coding interview. 6 00:00:25,820 --> 00:00:30,410 My name is Jackson and I love to make complex things simple. 7 00:00:30,500 --> 00:00:37,910 I have taught data structures and algorithms to tens of thousands of students, and some of my courses 8 00:00:37,910 --> 00:00:41,900 have the best rating in Udemy in this category. 9 00:00:41,930 --> 00:00:49,250 This course will help you become proficient in data structures and algorithms, especially if you take 10 00:00:49,250 --> 00:00:54,620 the time to complete the dozens of coding exercises included in this course. 11 00:00:56,390 --> 00:01:03,740 This course assumes no prior knowledge of data structures and algorithms, so if you are not at all 12 00:01:03,740 --> 00:01:09,380 aware about data structures and algorithms, I will be with you throughout the journey, taking you 13 00:01:09,380 --> 00:01:14,270 through the fundamentals, then intermediate concepts and finally advanced concepts. 14 00:01:14,300 --> 00:01:20,360 On the other hand, if you are already familiar with data structures and algorithms, you can go through 15 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:26,570 the curriculum of this course and identify areas that probably you need to improve upon. 16 00:01:26,570 --> 00:01:31,940 And you can check them, and you can also speed through the other parts of the course to probably learn 17 00:01:31,940 --> 00:01:36,440 something new, which will make all the difference in your next coding interview. 18 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:46,700 A typical coding interview consists of 45 minutes, during which you will be asked to solve one or a 19 00:01:46,700 --> 00:01:48,500 few coding interview problems. 20 00:01:48,500 --> 00:01:55,700 And these problems are like puzzles which can be solved both conceptually as well as programmatically. 21 00:01:55,700 --> 00:02:02,240 And for this you will have to use various tools, which is what we call algorithms and data structures 22 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,880 to efficiently crack a coding interview. 23 00:02:04,910 --> 00:02:11,120 You should be able to identify the pattern of a question, and then use the appropriate data structures 24 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,550 and algorithms to quickly solve it. 25 00:02:13,580 --> 00:02:21,380 Now to master this, the key is the right kind of practice, and that is where this course helps you 26 00:02:21,380 --> 00:02:23,030 in four different ways. 27 00:02:23,330 --> 00:02:30,950 First of all, you will notice that the in-depth video explanations that are animated will help you 28 00:02:30,950 --> 00:02:37,580 thoroughly understand how to solve questions and apply what you learn in a variety of questions. 29 00:02:37,580 --> 00:02:45,500 Secondly, right from the beginning, this course focuses on analyzing the space and time complexity 30 00:02:45,500 --> 00:02:52,220 of every solution that we come up with, and we use this to optimize the solutions that we write for 31 00:02:52,220 --> 00:02:54,200 various coding interview questions. 32 00:02:54,620 --> 00:03:01,280 This course will also help you develop problem solving skills, because the approach that we take is 33 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:09,530 that of first building the necessary intuition and context for arriving at a logically sound strategy 34 00:03:09,530 --> 00:03:13,700 for tackling the coding interview questions that we discuss in this course. 35 00:03:13,700 --> 00:03:20,210 Finally, this course also will help you develop your communication skills, and that's very important 36 00:03:20,210 --> 00:03:26,030 because you have to be able to constantly communicate your thoughts with the interviewer during a coding 37 00:03:26,030 --> 00:03:32,390 interview, and the way that this course helps you to develop your communication skills is by demonstrating 38 00:03:32,390 --> 00:03:37,640 how you could explain a question, because that is what I am doing for you throughout this course. 39 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:42,740 And once you have learned a question, you can try this approach and improve your communication skills 40 00:03:42,740 --> 00:03:43,490 as well. 41 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:53,440 This course is different from all the other data structures and algorithms courses out there because 42 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:54,880 of three factors. 43 00:03:55,240 --> 00:04:03,820 First of all, this course is structured as daily challenges, which gives you a clear goal for every 44 00:04:03,820 --> 00:04:04,360 day. 45 00:04:04,390 --> 00:04:09,340 This clarity will help you maximize your productivity. 46 00:04:09,670 --> 00:04:17,800 This also helps you to easily fit this course around your life, because I know that you may be busy 47 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,190 with work or other aspects of daily living. 48 00:04:21,220 --> 00:04:29,440 Secondly, to make everything easier to understand, you will notice that I use multicolor animation 49 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:35,890 to explain complex topics visually, making them very easy to understand. 50 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:44,560 Finally, we don't stop at the beginning of topics, but rather explore them in depth with actual coding 51 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,670 interview questions ranging from easy to hard problems. 52 00:04:48,700 --> 00:04:55,270 The course is carefully structured in a way that you will be able to retain what you learn. 53 00:04:56,970 --> 00:05:00,600 In this course structured as Daily Challenges. 54 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:07,950 We start with the basics, which is to understand Big-O analysis for getting the time and space complexity 55 00:05:07,950 --> 00:05:10,650 of algorithms that we will be writing. 56 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:19,350 We then move on to important algorithmic techniques such as recursion, backtracking, dynamic programming, 57 00:05:19,350 --> 00:05:26,310 searching and sorting algorithms, etc. and explore these in great detail. 58 00:05:26,940 --> 00:05:35,640 After this, we move on and cover the common data structures tested in interviews such as arrays, linked 59 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:45,870 lists, stacks, queues, strings, binary trees, heaps, and graphs for each algorithm and data structure. 60 00:05:45,900 --> 00:05:55,500 We also discuss real interview problems asked by companies such as Google, Netflix, meta, Amazon, 61 00:05:55,500 --> 00:06:04,650 etc. in every topic, multiple questions are covered to help you learn different tricks and techniques, 62 00:06:04,650 --> 00:06:09,300 which can be applied to a wide variety of questions. 63 00:06:09,330 --> 00:06:17,610 This course also includes multiple quizzes, downloadable resources, and cheat sheets, and more to 64 00:06:17,610 --> 00:06:21,180 help you succeed in your upcoming coding interviews. 65 00:06:21,540 --> 00:06:25,560 So we're going to cover a lot of material in this course. 66 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:33,660 And yes, sometimes it can be intimidating, but the multi-colored animations, along with the detailed 67 00:06:33,660 --> 00:06:40,110 explanations and day by day challenges will make all the difference and it will make learning as easy 68 00:06:40,110 --> 00:06:41,130 as possible. 69 00:06:41,250 --> 00:06:48,000 You will find that this course is a completely different way of learning data structures and algorithms. 70 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:55,920 So if you are looking to get a job at a top tech company as a software engineer, or are a student who 71 00:06:55,920 --> 00:07:04,170 is about to graduate, or a self-taught programmer looking for your first job, or a person who's already 72 00:07:04,170 --> 00:07:06,390 working as a software engineer. 73 00:07:06,390 --> 00:07:10,080 But now you want to get into a top tech company? 74 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,090 This course is for you. 75 00:07:12,780 --> 00:07:15,090 Don't just take my word for it. 76 00:07:15,090 --> 00:07:22,080 I have included several preview videos so that you can go ahead and check out the difference that these 77 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,860 structured, in-depth animated explanations make. 78 00:07:25,890 --> 00:07:33,510 Also, do check out the reviews that my students have left on this bootcamp course, as well as my other 79 00:07:33,510 --> 00:07:34,620 DSA course. 80 00:07:34,980 --> 00:07:36,870 Well, what are you waiting for? 81 00:07:36,900 --> 00:07:45,420 Find out why so many of my students have rated this course five stars, and see what you can do when 82 00:07:45,420 --> 00:07:48,510 you learn data structures and algorithms.
