4 Semester of Computer Science in a few hours! Part 1/2
A lot of developers now haven’t graduated from the University with Computer Science. They become developer from graduated a Bootcamp. But still on the interview is required the knowledge of Computer Science and technical interview for it. So how to fill that gap and don’t go to Uni for it. Let me share how I do it!
I would like to start with the fact that we are writing the code for each other to read it or maintenance. So in 95%, we will write the code to be readable for other developer or for future you!
Efficient code would be more important when the code needs to be used every time when the user clicks something, so a lot of times. When It would happen, let say once a day it would be ok to use not efficient way but readable code!
As per recommendation from Senior Developers which graduated the Uni, we should read that book Cormen’s Intro to Algorithms . The book is long, dry … But defo worth to read it and take benefit for the rest of your career! Lifesaver for you in the future!

Big O and Recursion
Remember your code should be readable.
Big O is referred to loops, How many time we need to go through the loop if once n(0) if two
n2(0), if three n3(0) and so on.
Recursion is would be a not efficient way of the code but it makes the code easy to read.
