Description
Programming interviews are like standard plays in professional sport - prepare accordingly. Don't let Programming Interview gotchas get you down!This course has been drawn by a team that has conducted hundreds of technical interviews at Google and Flipkart
Just like teams prepare for their opponent's playbooks in professional sport, it makes sense for you to approach programming interviews anticipating the interviewer's playbook
Programming interviews differ from real programming jobs in several important aspects, so they merit being treated differently, just like set pieces in sportWhat's Covered:Pointers: Memory layout of pointers and variables, pointer arithmetic, arrays, pointers to pointers, pointers to structures, argument passing to functions, pointer reassignment and modification - complete with visuals to help you conceptualize how things work
Strings: Strings, Character pointers, character arrays, null termination of strings, string.h function implementations with detailed explanations
Linked lists: Visualization, traversal, creating or deleting nodes, sorted merge, reversing a linked list and many many problems and solutions, doubly linked lists
Bit Manipulation: Work with bits and bit operations
Sorting and searching algorithms: Visualize how common sorting and searching algorithms work and the speed and efficiency of those algorithms
Recursion: Master recursion with lots of practice! 8 common and uncommon recursive problems explained. Binary search, finding all subsets of a subset, finding all anagrams of a word, the infamous 8 Queens problem, executing dependent tasks, finding a path through a maze, implementing PaintFill, comparing two binary trees
Data Structures: Understand queues, stacks, heaps, binary trees and graphs in detail along with common operations and their complexity. Includes code for every data structure along with solved interview problems based on these data structures

Introduction
1 lecture 17:11
Coding interviews are tough - but beatable
Coding interviews are nothing like software engineering jobs, they tend to be stressful and focus on the hardest parts of a software engineer's jobs. However, getting your core concepts right, with a lot of practice is the secret sauce to cracking the coding interview.

Pointer and Arrays
4 lectures 52:55
Introduction to pointers
Pointers are the foundation of all hard interview problems, visualizing memory layout using pointers helps us understand what's really happening under the covers.
Pointer problems and arrays
Practice is the key to understanding key pointer concepts, solve pointer problems by visualizing the memory layout.
Arrays are pointers at heart, work with them exactly like you would with pointers.
Pointer arithmetic
Pointers know how much space the data they point to occupies. Which means you can access all elements of an array with a single pointer, pointer arithmetic is pretty cool!
Practice makes perfect - pointer problems
A whole bunch of practice with pointer problems. These should be easy because you will have the memory layout right there to help you visualize things.

Strings are just pointers at heart
3 lectures 43:09
Working with strings
Strings are character pointers which are equivalent to character arrays. Solve functions from the string.h library for practice dealing with pointers.
Pointer as arguments to functions
Pointers as arguments to functions have subtleties which need to be understood to use them correctly. Understand reassignment and modifications of pointers in a function and see how the original pointers are affected in the calling code.
Practice makes perfect - string problems
Let's solve some harder problems from the string.h library, remember the little details like string termination, null inputs all matter in an interview!
