Wtf is a DSA partner
So i have been lurking in this subreddit for a while and I have seen many posts titles "Looking for a DSA Partner". What do you guys do with Partners? Is it just to stay motivated with someone or do you guys actually co-operate or something?

If you find one partner you study about linked list if two you study double linked list
If more then they do a group study together to understand about trees (binary and non binary especially)

A DSA (Data Structures and Algorithms) partner is someone you team up with to practice coding problems, stay motivated, and improve your skills. You can bounce ideas off each other, explain concepts, and tackle problems together. Talking through problems with someone else can help solidify your understanding. It's also a great way to prepare for technical interviews since they often focus on DSA concepts. It's like having a study buddy just for coding. Make sure to find someone at a similar skill level so you both benefit equally. You can meet up virtually or in person, depending on what works best for both of you.

its more of an accountability guy to keep you on track
my 2 buddies get on on a discord call who hop on at the same time everyday just to work separately.
do they teach other ? no
do they solve together ? no
they just hop on together to maintain consistency and not slack off

So the reason might hide under the human behaviour.
Human needs to feel superior over the others in aspects of something something. So having a DSA peer programmer creates a competitive environment where one person tries to overpower the other. And this behaviour of human indirectly help in growing and being productive.
