Replying to @oh if you’re leetcoding, you MUST use 1 of these 3 languages. (Scroll for spoilers 👇🏾) . . . 3. Typescript. Easy. Like the number 1 but strongly typed. Much cleaner code . . . 2. A language you’re actively learning. What better way to learn C++ than by learning to find the maximum contiguous subarray! . . And the number 1… language to do Leetcode in… IS . . 🥁🥁🥁 . . 1. Python! It’s by far the easiest language. Everybody knows it. And you don’t want to waste minutes on syntax when you simply don’t have to. Share this with a friend studying Leetcode #swe #csmajor #techjobs
