I've watched a couple of your videos and you clearly are an amazing coder with a good understanding of algorithms. So it is so reassuring when you still have to look up some basic Python stuff sometimes, honestly it is always disheartening when I have already been coding with it for years and sometimes forget really silly things like how to get the length of a vector in a given language. Glad to see it doesn't mean I'm a bad coder for it.
Thanks Colin! I actually worked through all of these as you did (but I paused your video in between questions LOL). I would love to do the same thing with Leet's medium and hard questions, and questions from other platforms.
Seems like this video didn't do too well (though it got a bit of traction recently... hard to tell, honestly), so I'll probably put off the higher difficulty speedruns until later when I'm less concerned about growth. But next video (in < 24 hours, probably), will have more of that "follow along" element, with various difficulties, so it should be sufficient.
@@ColinGalen From a full-time SWE perspective, I think a higher difficulty video would've done way better. For instance I personally would've been more inclined to share this video if you were speedrunning mediums or hards.
C++ is so effing fast - incredible. I code along in JS since I started with web dev and holy cow is the difference big! 3:46 I lol'ed hard when you changed to Python here and answered with a one-liner : D
@@flighted2513 I solved parallely with colin galen. We both think the same logic. It will give you hope that you can solve more problems!. Just read the comments don't research it! 😂
Nice Colin, you went to MBHS right? I'm used to seeing you destroy high school programming contests, which is crazy because I always thought you were past college rn
haha for problem 2011 you can do a funni thing and use javascript's eval(string code) to execute actual js code and do the X-- and ++X like that. Python has eval too but doesn't have X-- operation for some reason so yea wtf
I am unsubscribing. Although, it would not affect your sub count because the content you have started to make recently is designed to attract subs.

No one cares, never seen a competitive programmer become highly successful (except for the founder of Quora if I remember correctly), successful individuals in Tech do not have time for Competitive programming. It is a waste of time, rarely does it have practical applications, and never is a new algorithm invented by a competitive programmer. Plenty of the channels targeting competitive programming as their main content have bitterly failed. They may gain loads of attention at first, but always rapidly decline thereafter in terms of followers. There are simply too few demands in this field, not many care about competitive programming, all they care about is to somehow pass the FANG interview question. And medium Leetcode questions are enough for them to do the task in most cases. If he want to become a successful influencer, targeting interview questions is the smartest move. Even in the case where sharing his competitive knowledge is his passion, that passion would eventually fade away as no one cares about it. There must be something that motivates him to keep going, either attention or money. If he's got neither, obviously he's gone the wrong way, it's time for him to make a new move
Never seen someone destroying questions like these. Please Do a medium difficulty speed run. We love your content Colin Galen.
Okay, okay, I promise I'm almost done with this thumbnail (edit: it was changed, so this no longer applies)
try contest leetcode, bro
I thought that was the same video lol. Btw, what about a video of CS Data Structures Tierlist?
You should do cses problem set for speedrun
Also consider playing light background music like classical music so video becomes more entertaining 😀
I love that thumbnail

I recently started learning programming (Python) and the way you solve these problems inspires me! You got a new fan my good man
Actually a bit late to reply Im also learning python if you like it kindly please share your progress I would like to know it
You should speed run the virtual contests. Go through all four, look at rank, then quit the virtual and go to next one. Would be exciting to watch.
Speedrun mediums! They’re by far the most common difficulty for interviews
C++ is so effing fast - incredible. I code along in JS since I started with web dev and holy cow is the difference big!
3:46 I lol'ed hard when you changed to Python here and answered with a one-liner : D
I love your videos man. Thank you for sharing
Learnt a lot from this. Boosted my confidence while solving leetcode questions.
Please keep them coming content like this....✌
Kudos Mr. programmer you really inspire us
Thanks a lot Colin. I hope to one day become this good.
Nice video -- haven't finished yet. I found the chrome extension extremely useful.
Keep targeting this userbase; gonna be great for engagement
please do speed runs of medium as well as hard q's too !!!! and more of these easy speedruns please
wtfed hard at that add two integers problem
Hardest leet question
What a god. I wonder where he will be in 10 years if he is already this experienced so young
Someday I really want to reach at this level.
please make a video for tough math problems , I always get stuck in them in atcoder
I’m watching with 0% competitive programming and 0% interview experience how and where can I start my journey ?
Yo bro you are insane 🤯!!
Thanks for boosting confidence 😁
how does this boost your confidence lol? Thought it would make it less
@@flighted2513 I solved parallely with colin galen. We both think the same logic. It will give you hope that you can solve more problems!. Just read the comments don't research it! 😂
Dude, apply to Hudson River Trading. You would crush every interview they throw at you.
Please do speedruns for the hard problems as well
I can't say enough ... in short - Thanks a lot for this.
Hey you should try reaching out to clement's channel and do some algoexpert questions there as well!
Hi , Can you tell us what resources did you use to master data structures and algorithms. It would be really helpful
3:25 imagine not knowing about std::partial_sum smh
Nice Colin, you went to MBHS right? I'm used to seeing you destroy high school programming contests, which is crazy because I always thought you were past college rn
bro just speedrun my entire month
i love the 3:50 python moment
Top Competitive Programmer getting rate-limited by LeetCode at 5:15
everybody hit subscribe! we need that medium level video!
i am learning how to googling in here
At 44:00 how did u highlight all the green problems?
31:17 what is string(1,c)? anyone help me please, I did search for it but don't quite understand it
Sorry for replying to a 2 month old comment, but it is creating a new string f with length 1, initialized with the character c.
You the best!
12:13 Python people 😂
If you mastered JavaScript, you can solve most problems writing a single line of code under 80 characters.
really??? `o` but i see almost everyone is solving these problems either in C++, java or python .
Can you emphasize why is so ?
@@wealthmaster69 it can achieved mostly by using Array methods and ES6 syntax. This is the power of declarative programming.
but javascript is slow better than c or cpp
he looks like that hacker guy from the anime The Pet girl of sakura sau
Sheesh I wonder how many mediums you could do in an hour.
I'm first time here, taught you were a girl 😳😳 then comes your voice 😳😳 lol.... Nice content BTW
Maybe, you need try vim
haha for problem 2011 you can do a funni thing and use javascript's eval(string code) to execute actual js code and do the X-- and ++X like that. Python has eval too but doesn't have X-- operation for some reason so yea wtf
But in interviews they won't let you use those methods.
Bro upload short CP concept videos...i think it will be more helpful...
this guy is actually jesus. thanks sir!
NEXT TIME 70+MEDIUM QUESTIONS IN 1 HOUR
this is a challenge bro
thefuq this dude insane
Speed run the grind 75 problems
man are you a heavy metal guy?
I think you can slay more if you do each with Python. You will have to write a lot less code.
do medium next plz
why don't you just get paid 400k a year because you're so talented bro hahahaha
great content! maybe you can invest some equipments and be a part-time youtuber ✌️
ik im off the topic, but u are so handsome
CLEAN THOSE GLASSES
btw what's your LeetCode handle?
out of context....but sir why are u so gorgeous?
big fan please like
Dhoka!!!!!!!!!
bahi mujhe laga tu ladki par ladka nikal mera dil tut gaya ..💔💔💔💔💔💔
Are Bhai Bhai
🤣🤣🤣🤣
He is a gay,
You got 6,666 views atm, bro
fast!...
i did not solve single question in 20 min😂😂😂😂
OH
ok, looks like you got a MAANG interview and preparing while making videos.
clean your glasses
Dude doesn't how to use max in python and still destroyed leetcode easy ones using python, bruh continue in python more it's easily readable
nice lol
😭😭😭

You are boy or girl
Same doubt
He is a human.
Can you not make out by his voice or are you deaf?
i guess this is the first video you're watching at first i felt the same but when heard the voice then it our man colin the fucking genius!
He a god
