Algorithms
1. Studied Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) and did exercises: 2. Leetcode submissions: 3. 903 submission of 202 problems (I repeated many every few weeks). I did 90 easy, 100 medium, and 12 hard problems. I participated in 6 programming contests. 4. I noticed many of the things I learned I forgot in a few weeks. So, I kept a spreadsheet (Notion Database) to keep track of my mistakes, learnings and made sure I was learning for the long term.
