Nice
i like watching these and pretending i know what’s happening
🤣🤣🤣same here bro .. Same here 🤣🤣
Yeah like nodding and everything
It feels really good that way :D

This is the motivation I needed to quit programming and look for other jobs
Edit: thanks for the likes
Average programmer mood
actually programming is very basic
@humandxp if youre not satisfied go create ur own shit.

When this guy finished solving the problems, I just finished reading the problem.

People say "learning coding is like learning a totally new language". Well then, this man is straight up rapping.
no this man straight up impromptu poeting with rap style
It's way easier than learning a new language
@@love.ly. hell the fuck no?
@@jujuyee2534 Yes it is. Being creative with it is hard though. With a language you have to speak and listen to it but with programming languages you only need to read and think it.
He''s making poetry
Im honestly more impressed that it is even humanly possible to read and fully understand an abstract problem this fast
I'm gonna go on a limb here as someone who barely knows anything about programming, but i think he has encountered similar types of problems, a lot of the text in the question is irrelevant and probably the input and a few of the > N whatever they are the only important bits to fix the problem. Compare it to math:
"Adam has two buckets full of newly picked apples . One bucket has 32 apples, the second bucket has 41 apples, how many apples does he have in total?"
Notice how the first part is totally irrelevant "Adam has two buckets full of newly picked apples", you can still solve the problem without even reading that part. And i think it's the same thing here, just fill in the gaps as you go.
@@bakerhalt Exactly. Just like the SATs in high school. I always tell my students to analyze the similarities of sentence structures in math word problems to solve them even quicker by familiarization.
mostly pattern recognition and algorithm training. you can guess what the question wants without reading everything, through looking at the input description and the input itself. i sometimes do challenges where you're supposed to answer the question by only looking at the input
@@bakerhalt It's only my second year in Computer Science, but what you're saying is true. I'm not even half as good as this guy is, but when you've done a lot of practice and tried to solve a lot of different types of problems, you can pretty much look at a problem at a glance and think that "Oh, this is a knapsack problem, I have to use dynamic programming on this one" for example. And then after that your memory and understanding of the solution of the problem kinda takes over, and all that matters is how the problem gives you the input and how they want you to give them the output.
He started Coding at 8 and I didn't even have a computer at my house at 8 there's a difference when u learn something at 8 and 18 ...
remember, no matter how good you are at something, there's always going to be an asian better than you

and if it's not an asian, it's just someone who wake up at 3 am and finishes to study at 2 am
Give this guy another monitor to have the problem on one screen and code on the other... He'll be done in half the time
I'm seriously wondering why he isn't just tiling vim and chrome. And making the font size on vim smaller so that he can also tile the console under it.
his way is better so that he can focus in one thing
@@slimaaan you can do that with having everything displayed at once, simply, by not looking at what you are not focusing on
@@slimaaan you've got a point in that. Obviously I don't do competitive programming like him but when doing school work I often want a second monitor so I don't have to alt tab all the time
having more screen doesn't help all the time, reason is won is because he don't have multiscreen and waste time moving and searching different monitors
His ability to recognize, evaluate, and execute problems to solutions is inhumanly fast.
He has drilled and recognized an insane amount of patterns in problems that he's literally able to interpret each problem just by skimming the explanations in seconds.
This guy probably has wet dreams about solving problems on stack overflow for everyone, god bless him.
Lol facts
Lmao
stack overflow is mostly for developers, he's a competitive programmer, there's a difference
@@nicotinedealer7653 whats the difference.
@@QWERTY-gp8fd competitive programming deals with coming up with algorithmic solutions to problems concerning discrete mathematics. Development is the act of creating any product (software, website, mobile app etc). Of course, development is not entirely independent of algorithms but the crux of development is knowing how to use languages, frameworks, APIs etc. to create something, while in cp, we use the programming language as a means to express our solution for the problem. In my personal experience, I've used stack overflow entirely to help fix bugs while using a language, framework, editor, compiler etc. You can check out codeforces, cp algorithms, gfg etc. to help with cp.
Reads question in 20 seconds. Types some gibberish in 2 minutes. "and, this should work in linear time"

Read more books on C. And keep going you will on the same level as him soon too.
No genius, only practice, believe in yourself.
It's just a lot of practice that's all, same with math, once you understand method and concept it's really not that hard.

As a fellow CS senior, I can say you're not alone
As a man with 1 month into coding. You are not alone
Just takes practice now, you should be able to pick this up quickly after a couple of months so that you’re significantly quicker
@Atharv Khatri what makes you say that
There is a difference between being able to solve quick algorithm problems and actually coding

wow, he actually breaks the stereotype using this edgy theme, I would never expect someone with a browser theme like this to code even at a decent level
I don't think anyone's aesthetic preferences have anything to do with their cognitive ability.

@@abdullahibrahimhassan7301 that's an exaggeration. The problems given there cannot be solved by a normal person practiced for 2 years. I'll even give you 10 years and you'll never be close to him (you can be very good nonetheless, but not close to him). You'll probably understand the syntax, but not the algorithm, and how one person can quickly come up with one.
This guy won a gold medal at the International Olympiad in Informatics, with absolute score 600/600. 2 years of practice alone won't get you remotely close to this guy. You need talent, too.
@@jalsol I agree. I started when I was 10. By the time I was 13 I was creating complex algorithms similar to these. I never studied math in school, I learned it from expanding my programming knowledge. Now I have a career in server solutions for video games, and video game development. I credit my ability to shear talent and luck; it's what I'm best at in life and it was the only thing I exceeded in as a child. I've done programming lessons before (not even complex algorithm crunching like this, just medium-tier syntax) and had fully grown adults struggle to pick up basic syntax in 6 months time. I believe it takes a certain type of critical analytical thinker to be able to excel in the manor this guy does. He's got far better math skills than I could ever have, I could never do this in 30 minutes.
As an Asian, I can confirm that this is the cousin my parents always are comparing me to.
