The start..

Preparing for Interviews from scratch

When I started this project, I didn't know a stack from a heap, didn't know Big-O anything, anything about trees, or how to traverse a graph. If I had to code a sorting algorithm, I can tell ya it wouldn't have been very good. Every data structure I've ever used was built into the language, and I didn't know how they worked under the hood at all. I've never had to manage memory unless a process I was running would give an "out of memory" error and my submissions on Codechef Rounds would end up with TLE(Time Limit Exceeded), and then I'd have to find a workaround. I've used a few multidimensional arrays in my life and thousands of associative arrays, but I've never created data structures from scratch.

It's a long plan. It may take you months. If you are familiar with a lot of this already it will take you a lot less time.

This article is indeed long(Took me as much as the time to collect and write). Get your energy and Patience accumulated before starting out 🙃🙃
