When I was in college I used interview cake a bit and enjoyed it. It’s free for students irrc.
In general I think most of the interview prep industry is kind of a grift.

#12I've used AlgoExpert in the past.
They thoroughly explain naive and optimal approaches to every problem.
However, after I grasped the basics, I started practicing on my own using a Blind75 list.

#13Frankly, LeetCode itself has pretty good guides on all of the information, that then use the problems as the "quiz". I found a pro subscription for a few months to be pretty worthwhile.

#14Lance, if you hadn't got me runout in THAT match, you wouldn't have had to go through all these leet code programming.
Sorry man !

For folks who do did not get the reference, here is THAT runout: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxiyKWBPshg Not that watching this will greatly increase the understanding of the game who do not know cricket.. but still. (Basically the the guy in greens who was not batting simply did not run ... his is Alan Donald)
My apologies
Want to avoid getting out with the leetcode and system design peice :(
Re: Ask HN: Best Course for Leetcode Questions?
#16Not a course, but I find leetcode.com[0] a decent way to putz about and learn new languages. You can only write 'hello world' so many times, and often you don't want to write a whole program just to 'get a taste' of a new language. The leetcode (and advent of code) stuff seems a nice compromise. 0: https://leetcode.com/explore/
Leetcode explore helped me pass a few coding rounds! I recommend taking one track at a time until it sinks in before moving to the next one.
Re: Ask HN: Best Course for Leetcode Questions?
#17NeetCode has created a good website with a list of 150 practice questions that you can go through. The list contains links to his very explanatory walkthrough videos and code for (the solutions to) the problems. I'm not sure that you would get the best ROI from an online university course, but it might depend on your timeline (i.e. if you are actively preparing for an interview).
