<li>Chapters marked with '*' after the title are optional and contain relatively challenging content. If you are short on time, it is advisable to skip them.</li>
8 months ago
<li>Technical terms will be in boldface (in the print and PDF versions) or underlined (in the web version), for instance, <u>array</u>. It's advisable to familiarize yourself with these for better comprehension of technical texts.</li>
11 months ago
<li><strong>Bolded text</strong> indicates key content or summary statements, which deserve special attention.</li>
8 months ago
<li>Words and phrases with specific meanings are indicated with “quotation marks” to avoid ambiguity.</li>
<li>When it comes to terms that are inconsistent between programming languages, this book follows Python, for example using <code>None</code> to mean <code>null</code>.</li>
11 months ago
<li>This book partially ignores the comment conventions for programming languages in exchange for a more compact layout of the content. The comments primarily consist of three types: title comments, content comments, and multi-line comments.</li>

<p>Compared with text, videos and pictures have a higher density of information and are more structured, making them easier to understand. In this book, <strong>key and difficult concepts are mainly presented through animations and illustrations</strong>, with text serving as explanations and supplements.</p>
<p>When encountering content with animations or illustrations as shown in the Figure 0-2 , <strong>prioritize understanding the figure, with text as supplementary</strong>, integrating both for a comprehensive understanding.</p>

<p>The source code of this book is hosted on the <a href="https://github.com/krahets/hello-algo">GitHub Repository</a>. As shown in the Figure 0-3 , <strong>the source code comes with test examples and can be executed with just a single click</strong>.</p>
<p>If time permits, <strong>it's recommended to type out the code yourself</strong>. If pressed for time, at least read and run all the codes.</p>
<p>Compared to just reading code, writing code often yields more learning. <strong>Learning by doing is the real way to learn.</strong></p>

<p><strong>Step 1: Install a local programming environment</strong>. Follow the <a href="https://www.hello-algo.com/chapter_appendix/installation/">tutorial</a> in the appendix for installation, or skip this step if already installed.</p>
<p><strong>Step 2: Clone or download the code repository</strong>. Visit the <a href="https://github.com/krahets/hello-algo">GitHub Repository</a>.</p>
<p>If <a href="https://git-scm.com/downloads">Git</a> is installed, use the following command to clone the repository:</p>

<p>While reading this book, please don't skip over the points that you didn't learn. <strong>Feel free to post your questions in the comment section</strong>. We will be happy to answer them and can usually respond within two days.</p>
<p>As illustrated in the Figure 0-6 , each chapter features a comment section at the bottom. I encourage you to pay attention to these comments. They not only expose you to others' encountered problems, aiding in identifying knowledge gaps and sparking deeper contemplation, but also invite you to generously contribute by answering fellow readers' inquiries, sharing insights, and fostering mutual improvement.</p>

<p>Overall, the journey of mastering data structures and algorithms can be divided into three stages:</p>
11 months ago
<ol>
11 months ago
<li><strong>Stage 1: Introduction to algorithms</strong>. We need to familiarize ourselves with the characteristics and usage of various data structures and learn about the principles, processes, uses, and efficiency of different algorithms.</li>
<li><strong>Stage 2: Practicing algorithm problems</strong>. It is recommended to start from popular problems, such as <a href="https://leetcode.cn/studyplan/coding-interviews/">Sword for Offer</a> and <a href="https://leetcode.cn/studyplan/top-100- liked/">LeetCode Hot 100</a>, and accumulate at least 100 questions to familiarize yourself with mainstream algorithmic problems. Forgetfulness can be a challenge when you start practicing, but rest assured that this is normal. We can follow the "Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve" to review the questions, and usually after 3~5 rounds of repetitions, we will be able to memorize them.</li>
<li><strong>Stage 3: Building the knowledge system</strong>. In terms of learning, we can read algorithm column articles, solution frameworks, and algorithm textbooks to continuously enrich the knowledge system. In terms of practicing, we can try advanced strategies, such as categorizing by topic, multiple solutions for a single problem, and one solution for multiple problems, etc. Insights on these strategies can be found in various communities.</li>
