What will you learn?
If you've had trouble getting past a hard whiteboarding session, this course is for you. Big-O complexity is arguably the most important concept students learn in a formal computer science degree. You'll build data structures from scratch in Python and improve your problem-solving skills. We'll cover binary trees, linked lists, stacks, graphs and more. This Python course will give you the foundation you need to start your career off on the right foot. After completing this course, you'll be comfortable crushing interview questions and writing performant code.

great course. pretty sure I'm not going to remember a thing. be sure to regularly create challenges for these so you have a better shot of understanding and remembering.

Exponentially harder than all previous courses if you're someone that doesn't have technical background.

DSA is always a slog, this is by far the most tolerable way to learn it.

I have never heard of Tries until this course. I think it was a great re-visiting of all things Data Structures and it left me better off!

Mostly good course, but I would have preferred that the course have broken up a few of the code challenges instead of inserting pre-built helper functions.

Got a bit confusing near the end with NP and P, but I stuck with it and completed it :)
