Hi, so I recently joined some of these websites and tried out some of the questions. At the moment I think that solving these things while reading through an algorithms text (I'm using CLR atm) may be helpful for...well, algorithm knowledge in general.
Some questions:
-How true is the aforementioned statement?
-What do you think about how sometimes these problems act as things for recruiters to look at?
-Any other thoughts?
I feel like these questions are not "practical" questions but getting an okay implementation is maybe a passive skill useful for coding in general.
