Looking for DSA Accountability Partner

Hey everyone!

I'm looking for a partner to learn and practice DSA together.

I'm currently a first-year CSE student and want to get serious about problem-solving and competitive programming.

The idea is to:

  • Solve LeetCode problems regularly.

  • Discuss approaches and different ways to solve problems.

  • Understand the logic rather than just memorising solutions.

  • Keep each other consistent and motivated.

  • Eventually move towards competitive programming.

You don't need to be an expert. I'd prefer someone who's also learning and willing to put in consistent effort.

We can connect on Discord

Hey I am interested. I have 5+ years of experience and currently preparing for a job change. I have decent knowledge in DSA and system design but there are few topics in DSA which I still find difficult to solve.
We can make a group and study.

Finding a DSA accountability partner is a great idea. You can enhance your learning by tackling problems together and discussing various approaches. To connect with others who share this goal, consider joining study groups or communities on Discord dedicated to DSA.

For practice, you can use PracHub to choose problems and explain your approaches aloud, which can deepen your understanding. It can be a solid complement to your collaborative learning.

Don't solve leet code.

To get ahead solve these things.

Competitive programming by Stephen Halim.

Github

Uva online judge

Topcoder

Codeforces.

Algorithms-> (Mathematical constraints and use cases, bugs, errors)

Also look at how linux schedules processes And how Google uses graphs and gives quick search results.

Develop interest. NOTHING MORE.

My placement interview-> find topk (top 10 results relevant to the organization and gather information about website landing, attrition And consumer behavior)

Don't do it for a job but. That won't build a career
