Date: September 10th, 2019 11:30 PM Author: Vibrant round eye Should i just do a ton of practice sets? I learn this stuff and then i forget bc i never use it (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4341306&forum_id=2#38816357) |

Date: September 11th, 2019 1:49 AM Author: confused depressive library big O is useful, but to program you do need a mindset that is math-oriented, even if you never really use the math explicitly...and CS/math courses like Automata are quite useful as well (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4341306&forum_id=2#38816826) |

Date: September 25th, 2019 9:44 PM Author: Floppy Blood Rage i mean, i don't even think you need to know big O in a strict academic sense.
just be mindful and rational about how loops, exponents, recursion and size of data sets affect execution time. that's something you pick up on the job kind of anyway. everyone here has the basic mathematical skill to figure it out.
if you can understand this article and develop intuition about when a function will perform well or poorly you're probably good: https://rob-bell.net/2009/06/a-beginners-guide-to-big-o-notation/ |

Date: September 25th, 2019 10:53 PM Author: Vibrant round eye I know all of this stuff already. It’s tested in interviews even at my level. There’s a higher level proficiency though (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4341306&forum_id=2#38887536) |

Date: September 25th, 2019 9:40 PM Author: Floppy Blood Rage lol @ "practice sets". literally, just build stuff. use online courses, tutorials, documentation, etc. as reference material (nothing more). (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4341306&forum_id=2#38887129) |
