yogeshpon Ask HN: What are good resources for studying Dynamic Programming?

I found lectures on DP by University of Virginia Prof Abhi Shelat to have best explanation of DP

If you need to understand specific DP problems that are common in competitive programming and interviews, then you should check out Tushar's channel at Youtube

yogeshpon Advanced Data Structures

If you are interested in Video lectures, there are plenty of resources available at this link: https://github.com/Developer-Y/cs-video-courses

For data structures in specific, You can go through following courses

1. CS 61B, Prof Jonathan Shewchuk, UC Berkeley -> [1]

2. COP 3530 Data Structures and Algorithms, Prof Sahni, UFL -> [2], videos are available at [3]

3. COP 5536 Advanced Data Structures, Prof Sahni - UFL [4]

All above courses focus on ideas than on mathematical rigour.

yogeshpon Ask HN: 8 years working, now 3-4 months off to learn. Looking for advice

Here are some of resources you can use for learning CS topics related to interviewing. You don't have to do all of them, do as per whatever combination suits you.

For learning Algorithms and data structures for interviews

1. Coursera courses on Algorithms by Prof Roughgarden

2. Coursera courses on Algorithms by Prof Sedgewick

3. OCW 6.006 as listed above would be good too.

4. Prof Skiena's algorithms course

5. Berkeley CS 61b by Prof Shewchuk for refreshing basic Data structures like Linked list, tree traversals which are not covered in above mentioned courses.

For practice,

1. geeksforgeeks.org

2. leetcode.com

3. interviewbit.com

4. careercup.com

5. Hiredintech.com

6. topcoder, hackerrank , spoj etc are good sites for practice in general but their problems are embedded with extraneous information not seen in interviews. For example, interviewer is not going to explain you 2 page story, instead he will tell you directly what needs to be done.

In books,

1. Cracking the Coding Interview

2. Programming Interviews Exposed

3. Elements of Programming Interviews

Books on Design Patterns

1. GoF

2. Head first design patterns

3. Software Architecture books by Robert Martin

4. Elements of Enterprise Architecture Patterns by Fowler

5. System Design research papers, gainlo.co has many design questions
