    Dynamic programming is very important in Indian SWE interviews. You will get atleast 1 DP in any one of the rounds. Its usually some variations of LCS or Buy and Sell stocks.
    I think top 10 most important are:
    Array, Matrix, Hashing
    Two pointer & Sliding window
    Tree
    Graph
    DP
    LinkedList
    Heap
    Merge intervals
    Prefix sum
    Some variation of binary search

    I am a Computer Science student who has recently delved into studying LeetCode. With a data structures class approaching, I find it amusing how there is a proliferation of LeetCode courses being promoted. While I understand the appeal, the way in which these courses are marketed can be off-putting. Not everyone aspires to work for big tech companies like Google or Amazon. The fear of missing out (FOMO) tactics used in marketing seem to be luring in many CS students.

    I want to set up a club, but I am not a college student. i passed out in 2021 in mechanical engineering in Delhi India. around till 1.5 years i tried different things, like preparing for masters, mba, for government exams etc. until i started to learn how to code. for one year i learnt all these different technologies through an online certificate course. Its been almost 2 months since that was over. have been applying consistently to jobs, trying leetcode. But i jave not been able to come up with a routine and stick to it. i am turning 25, 3 years since graduation and no job experience yet. It's my own fault wasting my time overthinking, but i keep trying to do stuff. I feel i don't know what I am doing half the time. i do not knoe anyone else who is in my situation. so for now, I prepare alone.

    Students can solve leetcode problems, given that this is pretty well known thing, starting for 1st year, in a year or two, there is so much time in the world.
    Senior devs got it the worst, the part where you have to rediscover the understandings of some problems, coz out of practice for years at stretch.

    Spend 5 mins thinking of a solution, 20 mins trying to implement if you cant solve by then, check solutions, repeat problem till you get a hang of it. RINSE AND REPEAT. Simple as that no need to sped the 20mins watching this video. This will work to speed run understanding easy to medium problems. Dont worry about hard problems, when companies give this they are not concerned about implementation correctness, rather, your thinking process leading up to the solutions. So if you want to attempt hard level problems, do so without feeling the need to have a correct implementation, but the approach should be reasonable.
