DESCRIPTION:
"Not a well-known book but surprisingly good" according to Frankie. This book is surprisingly good due to the varieties of the problems and mostly having good explanations on the solutions (better than cracking book). Some problems not found in other similar books.The only problem I have with this book is it's not well-organized into areas - I know it's hard but for example, all strings related problems should be under the same chapters, same are arrays.My recommended books: "Coding Interviews", "Elements of Programming Interviews", and "Cracking the Coding Interview" (must be 5th ed.) in that order.This actually Not a well-known book but surprisingly good Frankie This book is surprisingly good due to the varieties of the problems and mostly having good explanations on the solutions (better than cracking book).

First impression kathryn fruchey I haven't read this entire book yet, but since it hs no reviews I thoght it be helpful to give my first impression.I wanted to find a book that was very current, complete, and had more than just basic algorithms and structures.I'm not sure how well the book reflects what is currently happening in interviews, but I get the impression that the author has enough experience from his job and from the comments on his blog to give a better than average impression of what kinds of answers interviewers are looking for and of the kinds of mistakes interviewee's are likely to make.The questions from the.

It covers five key factors which determine performance of candidates: (1) the basics of programming languages, data structures and algorithms, (2) approaches to writing code with high quality, (3) tips to solve difficult problems, (4) methods to optimize code, (5) soft skills required in interviews. So the author covers those bases.Readers will improve their interview performance after reading this book. The author makes clever use of the fact that interviewees will have limited time to program meaningful solutions which in turn, limits the options an interviewer has. Besides solutions, it contains detailed analysis, how interviewers evaluate solutions, as well as wh
