DSA sucks! Need genuine suggestion
Hi everyone, I have tried too hard to distance myself from coding and DSA since my graduation year 2020. Still at this point of time my role which is DE demands lil bit of coding . Moreover, in every interviews coding is preferable. I have started learning DSA for past a week now and I’m sick of this because I’ve always hated that part. It become Lich of my life. The moment I learn , and that moment when I try to solve related topic question seems still hard for me. I don’t know if I would be able to make it in tier 1 companies ever or not. I would like to continue in technical role only. Can somebody share their experience how they learnt and how did they feel , what’s your intake ? How much time ideally it takes to learn and hands on it?
It happens. I hated it for the good 4 years of my career, until I found a friend in our team lead. It takes a bit of time to get used to, and took me a year to learn it. But it does help, I was able to crack a good amount of interviews after I learnt it, including Google and PhonePe. Just take your time, and don't rush.
Hmmm make sense. Thanks!
Welcome to the party 🥳 I am not from CS background but I used to do DSA for 3-4 months before switching jobs each time. It gets a little better each time. Intuition and recognizing patterns becomes slightly easier each time.
That is even fine like recognising the pattern but while doing question it is bit trouble to start with , how to write code for this question that question and then again we go back to see the solutions
Min 6-10 good months
