Leetcode Patterns
Background
This repo is intended for any individual wanting to improve their problem
solving skills for software engineering interviews.
Problems are grouped under their respective subtopic, in order to focus on
repeatedly applying common patterns rather than randomly tackling questions.
All questions are available on [leetcode.com] with some requiring [leetcode premium].
Fundamentals
To find the greatest amount of success when practicing, it is highly recommended
to know the methods and runtimes of the following data structures and their
operations:
- Arrays
- Maps

- Queues
- Heaps
- Stacks
- Trees
- Graphs
In addition, you should have a good grasp on common algorithms such as:
- Breadth-first search
