Well I guess I will have to supplement my reading with some YouTube tutorials...cus the book( cornmen algorithm) is getting tiring already and I Neva start set.

I have also decided to read to book simultaneously so as to kill boredom. So when I was getting bored cornmen algorithm, I switched to secrets of the JavaScript Ninja which I also read up to chapter 3.

Abeg, if you have any indepth video on DSA please recommend. Thanks

Let me start with the secrets of the JavaScript Ninja. I learnt about the the lifecycle of JavaScript:

1)Building the DOM from HTML

2) pauses when it encounters a JS code, executes it and returns to building the DOM

3) when the HTML code is exhausted, JS goes to event handling.

And the looping goes back and forth

I guess that is why react uses a virtual DOM so we don't have to alter the real DOM when changes are made. I may be wrong though, please correct me.

I also learnt that the browser is based on single thread execution, sth like turn by turn..... I nw fully understood why DSA is very important cos when a script takes forever to load, it will prevent others from executing

Finally I learnt that functions are first class objects in JavaScript, can be used to do virtually anything. Can be declared with literals, passed as arguments to functions and so on..

In a nutshell whatever we can do with objects we can do with functions. Is there any advantage of using functions instead of writing everything literally? Well the book said sth about messing your codes with a lot of variables... I will be glad if someone can explain why functional programming is better.

wonderfully *clapping

I read about the insertion sort in cornmen algorithm. I attempted to one of the exercise about sorting in non increasing order. Here is a snippet of my pseudocode

Where A = [...] an unsorted array

For j= 2 to A.length
Key=A[j]
I = j-1
When I >0 and A[i] > key
A[i-1] = A[i]
i = i-1
A[i-1] = A[i]

This was the solution I came up with for the first question. I will be glad if the gurus can help me review the code am not sure of the answer
I solved the second question easily but I don't really understand the loop invariant aspect, but I found a solution on stack overflow and quota.

NB: The logic behind the code is comparing each number to a subarray j and inserting the number in the right place till we have a fully sorted array.

I will be signing out for now. Please abeg if you av any solution to some of the questions I raised. Please do share.

I anticipate your valuable contributions. Thanks and God bless

This post is all about my programming journey. I am just a young fella without a CS degree who wants to work at Google. This sounds crazy? Yeah. But, Wait-Danny Thompson worked at Google without a CS degree, maybe I am not being unrealistic then. Oh! I forgot, Danny Thompson is an American......

I will be documenting my journey to becoming a potential world-class web developer. I hope to finally get to work at Google at the end of this thread no matter how long....

I believe in the mantra- " Aim for the moon, if you miss it, you might hit a star".

I will be glad if the programming gurus in the house can be part of my history. Advise and encouragements and even scathing criticisms are allowed.

Your dreams are valid, but it seems you have too many dust. Let's clean it up.

1. An OOP hard core language is the bane to work at FAANG. Python, C++, Java are the norm. Meta will get you to learn Hack, which is a variation to PHP.

Please don't learn multiple languages randomly. Stick to one for learning DSA, and use Javascript/PHP for your web dev.

2. Don't waste inefficient time solving questions randomly. It's always good to see what others have donr successfully, and replicate it and even better.

Try and learn the fundamentals of all data structures first. Coursera has nice courses that teaches fundamentals. The reason why whites and Asians are good with cracking FAANG is because they have solid fundamentals. Use the linked below to get same resources schools like Harvard, Berkeley, and MIT train their students:
https://www2.eecs.berkeley.edu/Courses/CS61B/


There are about 17 patterns of which 90% of Leetcode programming questions are centered on. Know such patterns, and you'll find ease of solving the rest.
https://github.com/cl2333/Grokking-the-Coding-Interview-Patterns-for-Coding-Questions

When I started leetcoding few months ago, it was overwhelming. So I stopped and asked people I have as connections on linked who work at Google, Amazon, Dropbox, Meta, Microsoft, Palantir how they did it. They showed me the path to learning patterns, and right now, I could easily solve 2 questions a day on a medium like question on the 9 patterns I've learnt so far.

Mehn... You know a lot.

Not yet Sir. It's a work in progress

Thank you so much.... rare gems. Based on your advise I will be sticking with Java for DSA. Once I get my laptop, will also check out some of the course you mentioned

Thanks once again. I APPRECIATE.

AlX has the best programming Bootcamp I've seen, not just in Africa, but globally. lamda School is the other good one because they use a curriculum used to teach Amazon engineers.

Whatever you do, please don't drop out. I'll advise you stick to it diligently because you can't join it with any other thing and be efficiently successful. It's for one year, and if you're patient enough, it's more than enough.

They teach DSA in C, so you have a solid foundation to switch to C++ or Java in less than a month.

You do know there are Nigerians with no degree working at FAANG. Daniel Ayobami has no degree and is working at Meta. If you look through the Nigerians who regularly solve leetcode you would see some Google engineers and most I have seen only have a first degree from Nigeria.

Getting into MIT is good but it's very hard from Nigeria. A first-class and a perfect GRE score doesn't guarantee an admission and the CS program is the most competitive program there.

Omo, hv been away for some time nw no thanks to NEPA. Trying to conserve my phone battery, so I exhausted my it reading docs yesterday.

Spent some time revising my math 101 note on summation but it didn't help. I am just trying to read what is necessary now cus it seems the book cornmen algorithm is very very detailed.

I also read secrets of the JS Ninja. Mehn I really learnt a lot of things especially on constructor and the this keyword. Still can't wrap my head around self- memorization of function though. I won't be going through the details cos am trying to conserve my phone battery

I just want to say a very big thank you to those that have been contributing to this thread so far. Special thanks to Hanania. Due to some suggestions, am looking at getting a structured course on DSA . Coursera has some very good courses though, but I don't think I can afford the price tag for now.

I applied for financial aid on Coursera earlier this month and I was granted the scholarship but I could not finish the course after my LP crashed. Am thinking of applying for financial aid on DSA but I fear I might've denied due to the bad records. I will still apply anyways.

Seriously the article someone posted about a Nigerian working at Google really motivated mem I am humbled at hw fa I still need to go. Meanwhile I think I have been focusing on the technical aspects all this while ignoring the non technical aspects like communication, networking and all. I must confess, I am socially akward. The thoughts of public speaking and presentation alone sends shivers down my spine.

I will probably add that to my daily schedule and I will also start the 100 days of coding challenge on twitter

I will also consider technical writing. I used towrite blog posts in the past. Infact I have an account on truelancer, Guru, and freelance. I gave up when I was no longer getting gigs. Maybe it's my fault. I was even too lazy to create a CV.

I will write at least 1 article per week on medium and I will share the link here for review.

Please if you Know of any course on DSA. Please recommend, thank you
