✅ DSA Roadmap: Part 1 – Time & Space Complexity ⏱️📊

Understanding time and space complexity is crucial for writing efficient code. It helps you estimate how your algorithm will perform as input size grows.

1️⃣ What is Time Complexity? 
Time complexity tells us how fast an algorithm runs based on input size (n). It doesn't measure time in seconds — it measures growth rate.

Example (Python):

for i in range(n):
    print(i)

Runs n times → O(n) time

Example (Java):

for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
    System.out.println(i);
}

Example (C++):

for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
    cout << i << endl;
}

2️⃣ Common Time Complexities (Best to Worst): 
O(1) – Constant (e.g., array access) 
O(log n) – Logarithmic (e.g., binary search) 
O(n) – Linear (e.g., single loop) 
O(n log n) – Efficient sorting (e.g., merge sort) 
O(n²) – Quadratic (e.g., nested loops) 
O(2ⁿ), O(n!) – Very slow (e.g., recursive brute force)

3️⃣ What is Space Complexity? 
It tells us how much extra memory your code uses depending on input size.

Example:

arr = [0] * n  # O(n) space

If no extra structures are used → O(1) space

4️⃣ Why It Matters 
• Handles large inputs without crashing 
• Crucial in coding interviews 
• Essential for scalable systems

5️⃣ Practice Task – Guess the Complexity

a) Nested loop

for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
    for (int j = 0; j < n; j++) {
        System.out.println(i + ", " + j);
    }
}

// O(n²)

b) Binary search

while (low <= high) {
    int mid = (low + high) / 2;
    if (arr[mid] == target) break;
}

// O(log n)

c) Recursive Fibonacci

def fib(n):
    if n <= 1:
        return n
    return fib(n-1) + fib(n-2)

// O(2^n)

Takeaway: 
Always analyze two things before solving any problem: 
– How many steps will this take? (Time) 
– How much memory does it use? (Space)

✅ DSA Part 2 – Recursion 🔁🧠

Recursion is when a function calls itself to solve smaller subproblems. It's powerful but needs a base case to avoid infinite loops.

1️⃣ What is Recursion?
A recursive function solves a part of the problem and calls itself on the remaining part.

Basic Python Example:

def countdown(n):
    if n == 0:
        print("Done!")
        return
    print(n)
    countdown(n - 1)

▶️ Counts down from n to 0

2️⃣ Key Parts of Recursion:
• Base case – Stops recursion
• Recursive case – Function calls itself

Java Example – Factorial:

int factorial(int n) {
    if (n == 0) return 1;
    return n * factorial(n - 1);
}

C++ Example – Sum of Array:

int sum(int arr[], int n) {
    if (n == 0) return 0;
    return arr[n - 1] + sum(arr, n - 1);
}

3️⃣ Why Use Recursion?
• Breaks complex problems into simpler ones
• Great for trees, graphs, backtracking, divide conquer

4️⃣ When Not to Use It?
• Large inputs can cause stack overflow
• Use loops if recursion is too deep or inefficient

5️⃣ Practice Task:
✅ Write a recursive function to calculate power (a^b)
✅ Write a function to reverse a string recursively
✅ Try basic Fibonacci using recursion

👇 Solution for Practice Task

✅ 1. Recursive Power Function (a^b)

Python:

def power(a, b):
    if b == 0:
        return 1
    return a * power(a, b - 1)

print(power(2, 3))  # Output: 8

C++:

int power(int a, int b) {
    if (b == 0) return 1;
    return a * power(a, b - 1);
}
// Example: cout << power(2, 3); // Output: 8

Java:

int power(int a, int b) {
    if (b == 0) return 1;
    return a * power(a, b - 1);
}
// Example: System.out.println(power(2, 3)); // Output: 8

✅ 2. Reverse String Recursively

Python:

def reverse(s):
    if len(s) == 0:
        return ""
    return reverse(s[1:]) + s[0]

print(reverse("hello"))  # Output: "olleh"

C++:

string reverse(string s) {
    if (s.length() == 0) return "";
    return reverse(s.substr(1)) + s[0];
}
// Example: cout << reverse("hello"); // Output: "olleh"

Java:

String reverse(String s) {
    if (s.isEmpty()) return "";
    return reverse(s.substring(1)) + s.charAt(0);
}
// Example: System.out.println(reverse("hello")); // Output: "olleh"

✅ 3. Fibonacci Using Recursion

Python:

def fib(n):
    if n <= 1:
        return n
    return fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2)

print(fib(6))  # Output: 8

C++:

int fib(int n) {
    if (n <= 1) return n;
    return fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2);
}
// Example: cout << fib(6); // Output: 8

Java:

int fib(int n) {
    if (n <= 1) return n;
    return fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2);
}
// Example: System.out.println(fib(6)); // Output: 8

✅ DSA Part 3 – Arrays & Sliding Window 📊🧠

Arrays are the foundation of data structures. Mastering them unlocks many advanced topics like sorting, searching, and dynamic programming.

1️⃣ What is an Array?
An array is a collection of elements stored at contiguous memory locations. All elements are of the same data type.

Python Example:

arr = [10, 20, 30, 40]
print(arr[2])  # Output: 30

C++ Example:

int arr[] = {10, 20, 30, 40};
cout << arr[2];  // Output: 30

Java Example:

int[] arr = {10, 20, 30, 40};
System.out.println(arr[2]);  // Output: 30

2️⃣ Basic Array Operations:
• Insert
• Delete
• Traverse
• Search
• Update

Python – Traversal:

for i in arr:
    print(i)

C++ – Search:

for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
    if (arr[i] == key) {
        // Found
    }
}

Java – Update:

arr[1] = 99;  // Updates second element

3️⃣ Sliding Window Technique 🪟
Used to reduce time complexity in problems involving subarrays or substrings.

▶️ Fixed-size window:
Find max sum of subarray of size k
▶️ Variable-size window:
Find longest substring with unique characters

4️⃣ Sliding Window – Max Sum Subarray (Size k)

Python:

def max_sum(arr, k):
    window_sum = sum(arr[:k])
    max_sum = window_sum
    for i in range(k, len(arr)):
        window_sum += arr[i] - arr[i - k]
        max_sum = max(max_sum, window_sum)
    return max_sum

print(max_sum([1, 4, 2, 10, 2, 3], 3))  # Output: 16

5️⃣ Practice Tasks:
✅ Find the second largest element in an array
✅ Implement sliding window to find max sum subarray
✅ Try variable-size window: longest substring without repeating characters

👇 Solution for Practice Tasks

✅ 1. Find the Second Largest Element in an Array

Python:

def second_largest(arr):
    first = second = float('-inf')
    for num in arr:
        if num > first:
            second = first
            first = num
        elif first > num > second:
            second = num
    return second if second != float('-inf') else None

print(second_largest([10, 20, 4, 45, 99]))  # Output: 45

✅ 2. Max Sum Subarray (Fixed-size Sliding Window)

Python:

def max_sum(arr, k):
    window_sum = sum(arr[:k])
    max_sum = window_sum
    for i in range(k, len(arr)):
        window_sum += arr[i] - arr[i - k]
        max_sum = max(max_sum, window_sum)
    return max_sum

print(max_sum([1, 4, 2, 10, 2, 3, 1, 0, 20], 4))  # Output: 24

✅ 3. Longest Substring Without Repeating Characters (Variable-size Sliding Window)

Python:

def longest_unique_substring(s):
    seen = {}
    left = max_len = 0
    for right in range(len(s)):
        if s[right] in seen and seen[s[right]] >= left:
            left = seen[s[right]] + 1
        seen[s[right]] = right
        max_len = max(max_len, right - left + 1)
    return max_len

print(longest_unique_substring("abcabcbb"))  # Output: 3 ("abc")

✅ DSA Part 4 – Strings: Patterns, Hashing & Two Pointers 🔤🧩⚡

Strings are everywhere—from passwords to DNA sequences. Mastering string manipulation unlocks powerful algorithms in pattern matching, text processing, and optimization.

1️⃣ What is a String?
A string is a sequence of characters. In most languages, strings are immutable and indexed like arrays.

Python Example:

s = "hello"
print(s[1])  # Output: 'e'

C++ Example:

string s = "hello";
cout << s[1];  // Output: 'e'

Java Example:

String s = "hello";
System.out.println(s.charAt(1));  // Output: 'e'

2️⃣ Common String Operations:
• Concatenation
• Substring
• Comparison
• Reversal
• Search
• Replace

Python – Reversal:

s = "hello"
print(s[::-1])  # Output: 'olleh'

C++ – Substring:

string s = "hello";
cout << s.substr(1, 3);  // Output: 'ell'

Java – Replace:

String s = "hello";
System.out.println(s.replace("l", "x"));  // Output: 'hexxo'

3️⃣ Pattern Matching – Naive vs Efficient
Naive Approach: Check every substring
Efficient: Use hashing or KMP (Knuth-Morris-Pratt)

Python – Naive Pattern Search:

def search(text, pattern):
    for i in range(len(text) - len(pattern) + 1):
        if text[i:i+len(pattern)] == pattern:
            print(f"Found at index {i}")

search("abracadabra", "abra")  # Output: Found at index 0, 7

4️⃣ Hashing for Fast Lookup
Use hash maps to store character counts, frequencies, or indices.

Python – First Unique Character:

from collections import Counter

def first_unique_char(s):
    count = Counter(s)
    for i, ch in enumerate(s):
        if count[ch] == 1:
            return i
    return -1

print(first_unique_char("leetcode"))  # Output: 0

5️⃣ Two Pointers Technique
Used for problems like palindromes, anagrams, or substring windows.

Python – Valid Palindrome:

def is_palindrome(s):
    s = ''.join(filter(str.isalnum, s)).lower()
    left, right = 0, len(s) - 1
    while left < right:
        if s[left] != s[right]:
            return False
        left += 1
        right -= 1
    return True

print(is_palindrome("A man, a plan, a canal: Panama"))  # Output: True

6️⃣ Practice Tasks:
✅ Implement pattern search (naive)
✅ Find first non-repeating character
✅ Check if a string is a palindrome
✅ Use two pointers to reverse vowels in a string
✅ Try Rabin-Karp or KMP for pattern matching

✅ DSA Part 5 – Linked Lists: Single, Double & Reverse 🔁🔗📚

Linked Lists are dynamic data structures ideal for scenarios requiring frequent insertions and deletions. Unlike arrays, they don’t need contiguous memory and offer flexible memory usage.

1️⃣ What is a Linked List?
A Linked List is a linear data structure where each element (node) contains:
- Data
- Pointer to the next node (and optionally the previous node)

Types:
- Singly Linked List: Each node points to the next
- Doubly Linked List: Nodes point to both next and previous
- Circular Linked List: Last node points back to the head

2️⃣ Singly Linked List – Basic Structure

Python

class Node:
    def __init__(self, data):
        self.data = data
        self.next = None

Java

class Node {
    int data;
    Node next;
    Node(int data) {
        this.data = data;
        this.next = null;
    }
}

C++

struct Node {
    int data;
    Node* next;
    Node(int data): data(data), next(nullptr) {}
};

3️⃣ Insert at Head (Singly)

Python

def insert_head(head, data):
    new_node = Node(data)
    new_node.next = head
    return new_node

Java

Node insertHead(Node head, int data) {
    Node newNode = new Node(data);
    newNode.next = head;
    return newNode;
}

C++

Node* insertHead(Node* head, int data) {
    Node* newNode = new Node(data);
    newNode->next = head;
    return newNode;
}

4️⃣ Doubly Linked List – Bi-directional Pointers

Python

class DNode:
    def __init__(self, data):
        self.data = data
        self.prev = None
        self.next = None

Java

class DNode {
    int data;
    DNode prev, next;
    DNode(int data) {
        this.data = data;
    }
}

C++

struct DNode {
    int data;
    DNode* prev;
    DNode* next;
    DNode(int data): data(data), prev(nullptr), next(nullptr) {}
};

5️⃣ Insert at Head (Doubly)

Python

def insert_head(head, data):
    new_node = DNode(data)
    new_node.next = head
    if head:
        head.prev = new_node
    return new_node

Java

DNode insertHead(DNode head, int data) {
    DNode newNode = new DNode(data);
    newNode.next = head;
    if (head != null) head.prev = newNode;
    return newNode;
}

C++

DNode* insertHead(DNode* head, int data) {
    DNode* newNode = new DNode(data);
    newNode->next = head;
    if (head) head->prev = newNode;
    return newNode;
}

6️⃣ Reversing a Singly Linked List

Python

def reverse_list(head):
    prev = None
    current = head
    while current:
        next_node = current.next
        current.next = prev
        prev = current
        current = next_node
    return prev

Java

Node reverseList(Node head) {
    Node prev = null, current = head;
    while (current != null) {
        Node next = current.next;
        current.next = prev;
        prev = current;
        current = next;
    }
    return prev;
}

C++

Node* reverseList(Node* head) {
    Node* prev = nullptr;
    Node* current = head;
    while (current) {
        Node* next = current->next;
        current->next = prev;
        prev = current;
        current = next;
    }
    return prev;
}

7️⃣ Why Use Linked Lists?
✅ Dynamic memory allocation
✅ Efficient insert/delete (O(1) at head/tail)
❌ Slower access (O(n) for random access)
✅ Great for implementing stacks, queues, hash maps, etc.

8️⃣ Practice Tasks
✅ Implement singly linked list with insert/delete
✅ Implement doubly linked list with insert at tail
✅ Reverse a singly linked list

7️⃣ What is event delegation?
Answer:
Attaching a single event listener to a parent element to manage events on its children using event.target.

8️⃣ Difference between == and ===
Answer:
- == checks value (with type coercion)
- === checks value + type (strict comparison)

9️⃣ What is the Virtual DOM?
Answer:
A lightweight copy of the real DOM used in React. React updates the virtual DOM first and then applies only the changes to the real DOM for efficiency.

🔟 Write code to remove duplicates from an array

const uniqueArr = [...new Set(arr)];

✅ Core Data Structures Part 2 – Stacks Queues 📚📥📤

Stacks and queues are fundamental linear data structures used in many algorithms and real-world applications like undo operations, task scheduling, and more.

1️⃣ What is a Stack?
A Stack is a Last-In-First-Out (LIFO) structure.
Think of a stack of plates: you add (push) and remove (pop) from the top.

Operations:
• push(item) – Add item to the top
• pop() – Remove item from the top
• peek() – View top item without removing
• is_empty() – Check if stack is empty

Python Implementation (Using List)

stack = []

# Push
stack.append(10)
stack.append(20)

# Pop
print(stack.pop())  # 20

# Peek
print(stack[-1])    # 10

# Check empty
print(len(stack) == 0)

2️⃣ What is a Queue?
A Queue is a First-In-First-Out (FIFO) structure.
Think of a line at a ticket counter: first come, first served.

Operations:
• enqueue(item) – Add item to the rear
• dequeue() – Remove item from the front
• peek() – View front item
• is_empty() – Check if queue is empty

Python Implementation (Using collections.deque)

from collections import deque

queue = deque()

# Enqueue
queue.append(10)
queue.append(20)

# Dequeue
print(queue.popleft())  # 10

# Peek
print(queue[0])         # 20

# Check empty
print(len(queue) == 0)

3️⃣ Stack Using Linked List (Python)

class Node:
    def __init__(self, data):
        self.data = data
        self.next = None

class Stack:
    def __init__(self):
        self.top = None

    def push(self, data):
        node = Node(data)
        node.next = self.top
        self.top = node

    def pop(self):
        if not self.top:
            return None
        data = self.top.data
        self.top = self.top.next

        self.data = data
        self.next = None

class Queue:
    def __init__(self):
        self.front = self.rear = None

    def enqueue(self, data):
        node = Node(data)
        if not self.rear:
            self.front = self.rear = node
        else:
            self.rear.next = node
            self.rear = node

    def dequeue(self):
        if not self.front:
            return None
        data = self.front.data
        self.front = self.front.next
        if not self.front:
            self.rear = None
        return data

You don’t need to be a LeetCode grandmaster.
But data science interviews still test your problem-solving mindset—and these 5 types of challenges are the ones that actually matter.

Here’s what to focus on (with examples) 👇

🔹 1. String Manipulation (Common in Data Cleaning)

✅ Parse messy columns (e.g., split “Name_Age_City”)
✅ Regex to extract phone numbers, emails, URLs
✅ Remove stopwords or HTML tags in text data

Example: Clean up a scraped dataset from LinkedIn bias

🔹 2. GroupBy and Aggregation with Pandas

✅ Group sales data by product/region
✅ Calculate avg, sum, count using .groupby()
✅ Handle missing values smartly

Example: “What’s the top-selling product in each region?”

🔹 3. SQL Join + Window Functions

✅ INNER JOIN, LEFT JOIN to merge tables
✅ ROW_NUMBER(), RANK(), LEAD(), LAG() for trends
✅ Use CTEs to break complex queries

Example: “Get 2nd highest salary in each department”

🔹 4. Data Structures: Lists, Dicts, Sets in Python

✅ Use dictionaries to map, filter, and count
✅ Remove duplicates with sets
✅ List comprehensions for clean solutions

Example: “Count frequency of hashtags in tweets”

🔹 5. Basic Algorithms (Not DP or Graphs)

✅ Sliding window for moving averages
✅ Two pointers for duplicate detection
✅ Binary search in sorted arrays

Example: “Detect if a pair of values sum to 100”

🎯 Tip: Practice challenges that feel like real-world data work, not textbook CS exams.

Use platforms like:

StrataScratch
Hackerrank (SQL + Python)
Kaggle Code
