Thanks for all the comments! I wanted to add a quick note here that the intention of this video is to help you get better at Data Structures and Algorithms, and not to help you prepare for coding interviews. While I did add a book with interviews in mind and discuss that perspective throughout the video, that isn't the main goal of this video. The goal here is to simply help you get a better grasp of Data Structures and Algorithms. Interviewing is a whole different ballgame, and requires specific strategies and approaches to nail. I will make a video series on the whole process of getting better at coding interviews in the near future. But before you can get better at interviewing, you have to improve your foundational knowledge of Data Structures and Algorithms -- that's what this video is for! Hope that makes sense. Cheers! :)
Mycodeschool for basic and neso academy for c basic(theory and some pre-implementaion example,use 1.5x) or nptel (look for differ IITs if any updated new courses some are too old and some are new,use 2x here).
could you suggest which Discrete mathematics book are better
Thanks man. Love from Mumbai
Those guitars 😍
@@aminulislamsabbir4989 +1 to any Discrete math book recommendations
Love how you actually showed and read through the books instead of blabbering out a script. What a man! ❤😃
:)
Grokking algorithm literally helped me to vanish my fear for coding.
It's 2 am, spent all day coding, and can't stop learning tech stuff. Is addictive 😭
👏👏👏 That’s what I’m talking about! No sleep with the wicked! 😀 Keep it up bro!
@@EngineeringwithUtsav Thanks, this kind of engagement really motivates us to work harder and get where we want to be...
Keep it up bro
Good. But do take breaks and do different things so that you don't get burnt out.👍
@@shoebilyas9664 agreed
TH-cam algorithm can sometimes be fantastic, this is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a lot!
You are like a hidden gem in TH-cam. Great video style. On point and clear cut.
I have seen a lot of videos on Self-coding/Software Development, but your quality of videos is unparalleled. Great Aesthetics and unbelievably high quality content !
The best thing about your videos you give all the answers in a structured way.
This is a really helpful list of resources. I appreciate your channel and efforts you are putting into educating others! Thank you!
Dudeee.....you look so happy while reading from those books 😀😀
I used Elements of Programming Interviews for my interview prep and it is an amazing resource for sure. The questions are amazing and the way they relate other possible questions which can emerge from one question.
Damn dude. Im about to graduate next semester and was looking for something just like this. I love the layed approach. I need to freshen up on my algo and DS for interviews. Thank you for sharing this!
How is it going? Have you graduated already?
@@Words-of-encouragement.-. Yes ! I graduated and I have a software engineering position. Currently working on getting some cyber security certifications. I want to do some red team.
Love your videos. It makes me calm and focused , much needed for a software developer ❤️.
Awesome video man👌 .Thanks for the suggestions and detailed procedure to get good at algorithms.
your approach to topics in general is very unique. I have been following your videos and I love them. Thank. you and keep up the good work. 😀
You really motivate me, man! I am taking the ds&algo class next quarter! really excited :D
You got this!
I'm taking it right now! One mistake I made was to just read the textbook and learn the theory.
When you take it I would suggest to try to implement every single algorithm and data structure (esp the recursive ones). It really tests how well you understand the underlying concepts and (if you have time to implement a visualization) see how they work.
I just bought 3 of the books for the summer to study and help understand before the class starts. I also liked the way you you pick the books. Cause I was just going to buy a book but glad I watched this video
Another awesome video and content. Thank you very much for sharing brother, I will definitely be buying one of the books.
Interesting video. I am preparing for next semester with Robert Sedgewick's 'Algorithms 4th edition' and was curious what other people were using to study.
This is great! Next semester I start “Introduction to C++” first year of a community college working on an Associate Transfer to SDSU. I’ve been looking books like this, thank you for the video!
Ha we are in the same boat. Im hammering on c++ and java language because those are coding languages UC schools focus on
Same! I am also trying to transfer to CPP! Good luck to both of you! 💪🏻
@@arturofonseca5846 If you don’t have any programming experience IT will be a bit difficult but don’t give up! With time, all that you have learned will connect in some way. Keep your heads up and good luck!
You can do it! I transferred from a California CC to Cal!
Nice video, i've had Computer Science Distilled on my Wish List for about a year, but after your recommendation i'll buy it. I'm an experience Software Developer, but still struggle with Algorithm Interviews. Thanks!
Amazing Video. Provides great insights and resources in the video as well as in description. Thank You Very Much.❤❤
Liked the part that you stressed on first having a brief overview of the topics and then slowly and steadily diving deeper into specific topics. I first started learning a topic too much, which indeed helped but then it becomes discouraging if you are learning on your own, you don't get immediate results and then you started doubting yourself. Having a brief idea is enough to start solving problems and then picking up the topic as you keep on learning. This way I learned a lot and at the same time had the motivation to study.
I am still a noob :) but this way my learning curve is much much better.
great great video. I will continue with CS destilled. I was looking to feel confident about alg & ds interviews. Thanks a lot
highly appreciate this video brother!, it helped me to get an insight regarding what books should i go to
Excelent approach! Very helpful.
All solid recommendations. Grokking Algorithms was one of the best texts I read regarding the topic. I loved how Aditya broke the concepts down into simple relatable examples
I’m reading it currently. So beginner friendly.
would you recommend me this book to learn algorithms in python 3 ?
@@russellkarabelnikov539 I would. But focus on learning how they work generally, and not for a specific language
starting to fall in love with your channel, good stuff. appreciated
Awesome, thank you!
Thanks man.
This really helped a lot.
Cool background music. Really into your channel and content. Great stuff.
Cant thank you enough
I was searching for these type of book suggestions
those 4 books are gem, like you 🔥
Thanks sir for this video. I have a request to you . Can you make a separate video like this on DISCRETE MATHEMATICS ( for the step by step learning)
You're such a good man , thanks for the effort and info ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Really helpful video for DSA beginners , thank you!!
Great video Utsav! Very informative! Ordered the first two books, will be a good read for the upcoming holidays . Thanks! :)
Awesome! The first two books are a fun read!
I loved this video! Thank you 💙
I totally loved the video, thank you so much
i have being search for a while for a video like this. I am very lucky to have found your video and chanell, i was very lost looking for how to approach DSA. My University is pretty terrible at it and teaching it, so i had to find by myself a way to find. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I think i will buy all of the books, but start from the Distilled one and end up in the interview book one. You have saved my career life :D
Nice readings. I want to improve my algorithm knowledge. Btw, giving that personal piece of info helps out!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you very much for sharing your experiences and knowledge
@EngineeringwithUtsav, I hope we get to work together on a project or some functional area in Tech. You don't make things sound effortless and that's an excellent approach. "It can be done but it takes work."
Thankyou! It was really helpful 👍🏻
Great Video! Fantastic content as always!!
Thanks for this. Keep up the great work :)
Please upload more videos like this one❤...So helpful
Just watching this video today and I'm so blessed by everything you said...
As a software engineer with decades of experience...do you recommend knowing concepts in-depth or just having a surface/shallow knowledge as a starter in software engineering/development?
Cos some say you'll learn more on jobs and there's no need to know have a deep-rooted knowledge.
Would appreciate if I got an answer from you...
Liked this content and subscribed , this is what i am looking for
Thanks a lot man, you got inspired me to learn DS algo :-)
Truly great man. Thanks for your video.
My CS Professor was telling us last week about the Introduction to Algorithms book, and how it's the bible for this job. He was suggesting to all of us that if we intend to pursue this line of work, we should try to pick up at least an older edition of the book.
Thanks for giving me some lead in books.
I am envious of their students, the only important thing that my university has taught me was agile methodology :(
Thank you very much! Very good books review.
great channel. as a 19 years old programmer i am glad i found this channel
Apart from being a very informative video, your voice is very peaceful.
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Great video. Could you do this for Object Oriented Analysis and Design? (OOAD) Thanks!
Hey gentleman thanks for sharing your experiences and knowledge.❤️✌️
Amazing content! Can you please recommend some good resources on dynamic programming! Thank you!
Thank you so much, this will help. I'm going to start learning dsa in a week or so.
Best of luck! You got this!
Great!!! Finally we have the recommended book list from Utsavized on Data Structures and Algorithms. YAY!!!!!
😅
Love your video ! thanks !
This video actually read my mind lol, my DS&A kicked my ass this semester and I was like "hm I need a better textbook to study over break" and when I come home I see this video lol
I liked the video the books recommended are the once i used in my college i guess time to read them once again :-P, also the happiness in your face when u were saying you should know whats an int, array, variables etc hehe
Amazing vid man 👍🏻 Please do some more book videos
Excellent content ! Btw, what’s the background track ?
Your way of explaining tremendous bro..
Really enjoying these book reviews with, at least, this level of detail. Please continue with this format. 👍
Very helpful video sir, I will watch all your videos
Much Needed Video 🙏
I bought the big one. In my mind: i studied a lot of the topics, i intuitively understand what these algorithms do, and now I am ready to get deep into them and learn how they really work. I started reading it and on the first algorithm (insertion sort) I opened my code editor and started doing it. I tried to do without copying the pseudo code, but actually doing it from reasoning.
It took me several hours until I got it done (it was a naive bug of changing the variable and not the element in the list). I also had to look at some implementations in the meantime.
Yeah. This is going to be a LONG ride.
Then you are probably doing it wrong way, don't waste hours on it, 8-10 minutes are enough, sometimes you need to know k things already to be able to think of next bunch of n things
Think about it 😉
Hi Utsav thank you so much for this video its very helpful and I'm in the process of getting the recommended books. In regards to Elements of Programming Interviews, does a book exist for C# that i can use to practice? thanks again
This is great. Thanks!
Love your content!
I am Buying all these books in the description!! Thank you!!
The hard cover with CLRS is ❤️
Love your videos a lot
nice video and good content, thank you
This is legitimately great content thank you.
You are welcome!
thanks to youtube's recommendations for your videos
Thank you so much for the recommendations , really very helpful .. can you please recommend books on system design and database design ?
Please check out rest of the videos.
One of the most practical vids on the topic! New sub here. Are there any maths books you would recommend that will serve as a solid foundation in CS?
I’ll dig up some books for math and let you know
Thank you for making such amazing videos man....You really are awesome...:)
My pleasure!
Great video, subscribed :)
Thanks for the video
Thank you for this video, I have messaged so many times for this.
Thank you😀
No problem 😊
Thanks you made my day
This is really good content.
you made my day, thank you sooooooo much
You're welcome!! Glad it was useful!
Great video, loved it! :)
Thanks! 😃
I'm a senior Java developer (I work with Java since 2013) in big projects. I've never needed any algorithm to do my work, only the basic structures and logic to do my work. I have the book "Introduction to Algorithms" and this book is almost impossible to study if you don't know well all the basics algorithms and some advanced ones. And this book doesn't have the exercises answers. I don't recomend this book. Buy it if only you gonna work with something that needs the use of advanced algorithms.
I think this book is for people doing computer science when studying algorithms for 1 or 2 semesters. So it is bundle with other required courses like numerical analysis and some fundamental knowledge on the basics of algorithms and logic.
It can be an entry level, because it seems to be very comprehensive. But it will require a lot of dedication and brain cramps. I believe it is best suited if you are using it as a textbook for some class.
Here on TH-cam there is the MIT course on algorithms and they follow this book. It complements it very well.
Where are the exercices answers then ?
@@nims5537 look on Google for "Introduction to Algorithms exercises answers", I think you can find them. There are some PDF files with the answers.
Very helpful ☺
Thank you utsav for this valuable info
As always brilliant.
GREAT Job 👍 dude...excelent...2 books of your recommedatinexcellent, two books of your recommendation are my favorites at Amazon. Thanks...one thing good is that i am able understand Very well your English
Good explanation 👍
Hi Utsav, can you make a video on how to read the clrs and analyse those proofs and mathematical theory?
Amazing video ♥️
A good introductory book on algorithms is "How to Solve It by Computer" by R. G. Dromey. This is a great book for learning to think algorithmically.
Good to know that there are more people out there writing code and playing guitar :)
🤘
I have the same desktop wallpaper. It is awesome!
Wish I could like twice! Thanks for the guidance and tips
Any time!
Now the big boy comes..xD I am levelling up for this.
Hi thank you for your advices,
