This specialization features Coursera Coach! A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the specialization.

This specialization provides a comprehensive understanding of data structures and algorithms, with a focus on solving Leetcode and Blind 75+ problems. You’ll develop essential skills for cracking technical interviews in top tech companies by learning efficient problem-solving and algorithmic techniques.

The course begins with an introduction to resources, strategies, and time-saving tips to optimize your learning journey. You will tackle topics like arrays, strings, linked lists, binary trees, dynamic programming, and more, solving coding challenges along the way.

You’ll learn key techniques such as hashing, sliding windows, two-pointers, and binary search through problems like "Two Sum," "Longest Substring Without Repeating Characters," and "Merge Intervals." The course also covers advanced topics like dynamic programming, graph traversal, and greedy algorithms.

This specialization is ideal for learners preparing for technical interviews or those looking to strengthen their algorithmic skills. It’s designed for learners with basic programming knowledge, with an intermediate difficulty level.

By the end of the specialization, you will be able to solve complex problems, optimize code, and confidently tackle technical interviews.
