Welcome to the most important Data Structure in your interview preparation. Arrays are linear; they are easy. But the real world is hierarchical—file systems, HTML DOMs, and databases are all Trees. If you are aiming for top-tier product companies, you cannot simply memorize “Inorder Traversal.” You need to understand tree construction, serialization, and coordinate geometry … Read more
Most tutorials stop at BFS and DFS. That’s fine for a junior role. But if you are interviewing for a top-tier product company or a routing-heavy startup (like Uber or DoorDash), the interviewer will push you further. This guide is your Encylopedia. We have categorized the 12 Essential Graph Algorithms you must know to call … Read more
🧵 Master Python Strings with M.A.G.I.C.S. Strings are immutable sequences of characters. They are the most common data type you will encounter in Python. The Golden Rule: You cannot change a string in place. Every time you “modify” a string (like upper-casing or replacing), Python actually creates a brand new string for you. The Framework … Read more
💎 Master Python Priority Queues with M.A.G.I.C.S. A standard Queue is a line where you wait your turn. A Priority Queue is a VIP club. It doesn’t matter when you arrived; if you have the “Smallest Number” (Highest Priority), you cut the line and go straight to the front. In Python, we use the heapq … Read more
🚶 Master Python Queues with M.A.G.I.C.S. A Queue is a linear data structure that follows the FIFO (First-In, First-Out) principle. Think of a line at a coffee shop: the first person to join the line is the first person to get served. Crucial Warning: Never use a standard List [] for a Queue! Removing items … Read more
📚 Master Python Stacks with M.A.G.I.C.S. A Stack is a linear data structure that follows the LIFO (Last-In, First-Out) principle. Think of a stack of plates: the last plate you put on top is the first one you must take off. In Python, we don’t need a special library for this. We simply use a … Read more
📖 Master Python Dictionaries with M.A.G.I.C.S. Dictionaries (Hash Maps) are the “Heavyweight Champions” of Python data structures. They are used everywhere: from JSON APIs to databases and data science. If a List is a bookshelf where you find books by number (Index), a Dictionary is a real dictionary where you find definitions (Values) by looking … Read more
🔮 Master Python Sets with M.A.G.I.C.S. Sets are the “Bouncers” of Python data structures. They are unordered, unindexed, and forbid duplicates. If you try to add the same item twice, the Set will simply ignore it. Because Sets are unique, the M.A.G.I.C.S. framework has a special “Superpower” section for Math. The Framework Letter Category Status … Read more
🔒 Master Python Tuples with M.A.G.I.C.S. Tuples are lists that cannot be changed. They are faster, lighter, and safer than lists. In Python, we call them “Immutable.” Because they are locked, the M.A.G.I.C.S. framework looks a little different. The Framework Letter Category Status Key Operations M Make ✅ Active (), tuple(), (x,) A Add ❌ … Read more
🐍 Master Python Lists with M.A.G.I.C.S. Lists are the single most used data structure in Python. Whether you are a beginner or preparing for a coding interview, you need to know more than just .append(). To help you remember every operation instantly, we use the M.A.G.I.C.S. framework. The Framework Letter Category Meaning Key Methods M … Read more
