Pirate king I became homeless cause inflation. Please help
This List you gave us, should we follow this if we are only applying for junior front end web dev positions?
String
Two Pointers
Sliding Window
Binary Search
Recursion
Binary Tree
Backtracking
DFS
BFS
Graph
Linked List
Sort
Trie
Stack/Queue
Priority Queue
Dynamic Programming
step 1: start by top 100 liked questions
step 2: focus on the questions by topic
step 3: order the questions from the highest to lowest acceptance rate
step 4: learn from the solutions
step 5: revisit the problems (one or two weeks later until you are 100% confident to solve them )
step 6: solve company specific questions
Thank you💯
MVP
The Real GOAT 🔥
Thanks man.
thank you for making this list which is easy to copy paste, i'll be starting my journey from today.
recommended study topic order: 2:00
This is the best guide I’ve seen yet. I’ve been feeling so discouraged solving random easy problems and feeling like I’m not understanding a solution before moving onto a completely different algorithm. *mind blown*
Hello, may I ask, are you in the university?
Please keep up this helpful content! I started my journey to become a web developer 2 months ago and you have been a ton of help!
Leetcode study strategy:
1: Start with top 100 liked questions
- 50 easy and medium questions
2: Focus on category topics and patterns associated with different topics
- Do about 20 questions or so per topic to understand the pattern
- Recommend list of topics to start
:String
:Two pointers
:Sliding window
:Binary search
:Recursion
:Binary tree
:Backtracking
:DFS
:BFS
:Graph
:Linked list
:Sort
:Trie
:Stack/Queue
:Priority Queue
:Dynamic programming
3: Order questions from highest - lowest acceptance rate:
- Some mediums are easier than some easy questions
- and some easy questions are harder than some hard questions
- reason is difficulty level is subjective and system determined
- acceptance rating is objective and community determined
4: Learn from the solutions:
- Don't spend more than 45 min on each problem
- Learn from the solutions after attempting to learn the PATTERN
- Following questions of similar topics should become easier once the pattern is understood
- Looking at the solutions is like learning from expert
- Try to attempt first, than study solution after 45 min
5: Revisit the problems:
- After studying the solution revisit problem 1 week later
- This will help to ensure solutions understanding is there and not just memorization
6: Solve company specific questions:
- This will require leet code premium
- Questions are grouped company specific
- Also focus on frequency of the problems per company
- Seems to be accurate from others experience, no guarantee company will ask
All the best everyone !!!

thanks for detailed desc
This guide was very helpful and comforting for me to get started on Leetcode. Thank you
This was surprisingly very helpful. Thank you!
1- Start with the top 100 Liked Questions
Its questions are aborded by the community and other ones by the platform. The questions are valued by the community if those questions are helpful, clear and practical. Start with the 50 questions easy and medium questions avoid hard ones in the beginning, so earn how to play the game.
2- Focus on the questions by topic
Choose a topic and resolve most of the problem by the topic, and solve at least 20 questions.
3- Order the questions from the highest to lowest acceptance rate
Don’t just solve easy challenges. Challenge yourself, of course, if you think that can solve the problem.
4- Learn from the solutions
Don’t spend more than 45 minutes on each problem if you are stuck look at the answer and move on. Looking at the solutions is the fastest way to learn from the expert try to solve the challenge for yourself but if you can’t learn from the solutions.
5- Revisit the problems
If you look at the absolution you probably can’t solve it a week later. Make sure to revisit the problem until you are confident 100%.
6- Solve company-specific challenges
When you are ready for a challenge you might solve problems by a specific company it doesn’t mean that those questions will show in your interview but the list it’s pretty accurate.
Have a nice code, people!
Among all coders in industry you told correct way how to learn coding
For me i find it very surprising that even being an Android Developer for a year , I can't even solve the leetcode easy problems😂
Thank God I am not the only one. But I still didn't get a job.
Because all of these "problems" require a set of very specific ways of solving tasks that are unnecessary when in your project you just simply want to count something or do simple CRUD operations
Absolute gold! Very clear and short explanation. Great job, King!
Love ur video always ;)
btw when u got time make us meet player number 220 !
thx so much
Excellent
So is LeetCode only for coding languages or can I use it for learning Statistics? How about learning libraries such as Panda or Numpy?
Alright, i have a small question.
When someone will be ready to start doing leetcode? After he learns the basics from a language? What if someone just started coding and he doesnt know stuff? Approach LeetCode after you finish your studies / Bootcamp ?
Start LeetCode after you've learned Data Structure & Algorithms
@@PIRATEKINGDOM Perfect! Thanks a lot , keep it up.
What does acceptance rate mean exactly?

I totally agree with what you said about avoiding hard questions in the beginning, since it's pretty important to self-assess your level too -- one thing that stops a lot of people from continuing is basically picking problems that are too hard and getting discouraged. I've noticed a lot of people losing their momentum after failing too many problems and then basically giving up on them.
this guy should talk to a patent lawyer
7. Forget all advice and do whatever you like
1. Start with the top 100 liked questions
2. Focus on the questions by topic
3. Order the questions from the highest to lowest acceptance rate
4. Learn from the solutions
5. Revisit the problems
6. Solve company-specific questions
One piece is REAL !
I’m looking to go into data engineering/ ML engineering after my bootcamp but I still just subbed because I really enjoy your content delivery!
Thanks! Do you recommend leetcoding and reading Cracking the coding interview book at the same time?
im subscribing if ur not gay
i subbed n unsubbed
i need to know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Whats the platform that you were using?
give 3 months day and nights to study leet code so that you can get fired after 10 to 15 years of your job
I would be glad to clear the coding interview and get the job in the first place.
10 to 15 years at google is good money
Wtf is your point?
spend your time doing something which will last even after 15 years. Here you will spend endless amount of time learning DSA and let's say you get into a good MNC but still you will spend every day thinking is this my last day am I gonna get fired ?
Believe me I have spent endless amount of time watching these stupid DSA videos. cracked couple of interviews myself. nearly completing 9 years in this industry that's why I am telling you this. It is not worth to work for someone else in this world. @Toppu10 - Seu Canal Semanal de Cultura Japonesa!
FYI that's what this guy is doing he is smart he has created multiple income streams and left corporate hell
Hi pirate king , i just wanna say that you're amazing and what you do is amazing thank you
Acceptance rating is also misleading because people can copy paste the solution first time from the solutions section and hit submit :)
is this a reupload?
Thanks asian Howard Wolowitz
This is such a fantastic video. Now I have structure as I start studying. Thank you so much, Pirate! Very organized video, everything made sense to me, and it was very reassuring. :)
helpfull content
Hi, thanks for the tips! I'm comming back into the training (5 years working currently) and sadly there are a lot of easy "problems" that are so hard, but yes, its all because they ask us things that normally we dont more than solve a specific problem or mutate a specific data. We NEED to know about performance and time complexity,
Regrds from Chile
"clicks" nice pun lol (am i a nerd for getting that)
Very good video thank you for the advice!!
This helped me a lot. Something I've being doing similar to what is said in the video is looking at the solutions. I just don't summit the a solution if I was not able to write all the code myself. Hope that helps someone.
These are good steps for LeetCode and straight to the point. I appreciate it.
I looked into law school during undergrad
solid advidse thanks!
Thank you so much Sir You dont know how bad and dumb i used to feel because i used to see the code from the solution
Thanks.. I'm learning from you a lot ... Thanks for the sense of sharing that you have .. keep going.
P.S: you have a lovely smile
2:00 I'm following your topic list. Thanks ❤😊👍
hell yeah, finally i found something usefull thanks a lot man, you earn a new suscriber =)
your motion is mad zesty but the advice is golden mr piratekingdom
Just looked at the questions, and I can't solve any of them, even the easy ones ;-;
Why am I not able to visit any page from the description
How many hours a day for 3 months will this take? Might've missed it.
This guy hasn't changed his haricut since highschool
This is great! Thank you! I'm almost done with my first 100!
is your youtube name a one piece reference?
This video is extremely useful. I'm telling you ❤
Thanks 👍👍
This video helped me with the guidance and planning I needed. Thanks a lot.
Imo, planning is 90% of the work. If the work is well planed I'll spend less time doing it.
Hey @PIRATEKINGDOM Yo ho ho
Is it enough to practise LeetCode only to master DSA or is it required to get any theoretical knowledge from additional sources?
Does it make sense to start from the Explore section on LeetCode contains a big count of articles and examples inside each topic before go ahead with lists like the top 100 liked questions?
Thanks to you i finally got started on my leetcode journey
can someone tell me what language should i know to solve lleetcode problems?i went there but i was having hard time knowing what is going on. What stuff should i know for me to go there?
Just solve it using the language you are confident in imo
Hi dear,
Now I am in 2nd year. My plan to get an internship offer from a good tech company. If I am good at DSA Which one should I focus now leetcode or competitive programming?
Thank You❤
do you recommend getting the pro subscription or is the free plan sufficient enough?
I don't know
maybe yes o no
Shix steps shtrategy lol
but I think try is good
Hey! I have a question, how much time should I take to solve one problem and jump to another? What if I could not solve it in 2 days?
Thanks great content
give it 45 min and try to see solutions or resources. spending 2 days for one challenge isn't time effective.
참고해야짛ㅎ 감사합니다!
good advice
help me plz
thanks
Thank you. That's really helpful!

This helps a lot, thank you
Solid advice 💯 ...
So I just finished CS50 course and really liking Python. So I went ahead and watched a 12-hr tutorial about it.
You mentioned one should try to master a language deeply before exploring others. Should I just focus on Python and do leetcode for the next 3 months as planned, or try to learn a little more on HTML/CSS/JS/SQL/etc.
I'm worried that if I'm too piegon-holed into Python, I'm missing potential easy solutions solved by using other languages. Just like how you can do a lot of things with C language but Python made it infinitely easier, I'm afraid of spending inefficient hours by relying on Python only.
Thoughts? Really would love feedback from more experienced coders out there.
Thanks!
If the goal is to clear interviews id definitely just focus on leetcoding with python. At the end of the day the technical interview is just to see if you can logically think through a problem and apply data structures and algorithms to solve the problem and explain your thought process. Assuming you can do that most company’s aren’t really focused on how well you know a specific technology. Unless its for a very specialized skill set where you have to know the domain well (AI, Mobile, embedded). But, if its a general SWE position at a large tech company, leetcode is king. I’ve done coding interviews in python and passed and went to work on a team a team doing java development which i had to learn on the job. But, if you want to learn other tech too, maybe set aside a day or two out the week to just focus on your HTML/CSS/JAVASCRIPT if you also want experience with other tech too.
you will find a job where you will only need python so you better be the best as you can at it
If you're trying to become a web developer, i'd say learn more HTML/CCS/JS and do leetcode later or combine it. So 1/2 hours a day for leetcode and the remaining hours for HTML/css/js or vice versa. If its SWE you're aiming for (like Rod said) then grind leetcode first. HTML/CSS/JS is pretty easy to learn compared to DSA (Datastructures and Algorithms)
Studying for web development and Python in general is kinda double edged sword. If you want to land a job as a self taught web dev then you should have some projects in your resume so recruiters have something to see. But then when you go to the interview they will ask you to solve leet code questions which is something completely different than web development. So it's kinda tricky. I recommend doing some 4-5 projects you can put online so people can see and start applying for jobs. Then start doing leet code questions.
You do this because you will probably bomb first one or two interviews but it will be a good experience and practice while still giving yourself time to grind leet code
@@65MaX73 Very sound advice. Thank you so much for your input!
Imma speed run leetcode ez
PIRATE KING !!!
How do you solve burnout? I've done like 90 questions and am totally over it.
My recommendation would be, don't do a lot in one sitting, give leetcode 90 minutes a day and move on into something else.
Can you show us a way for a beginner to learn coding with zero tech experience
