Competitive Programming Primer: Ace the basics of coding challenges with step-by-step problem solving strategies


Overview

Solving coding challenges isn't just about knowing syntax-it's about thinking in algorithms, spotting patterns fast, and writing solutions that pass every test. This beginner-friendly primer gives you a clear, structured path into competitive programming. You'll learn the core techniques behind common problems, practice with guided examples, and build a reusable playbook you can apply to any challenge-without feeling overwhelmed. Inside this book, you'll discover how to: Analyze constraints and choose the right approach before coding. Master fundamentals: time complexity, Big-O, and problem patterns. Implement essential techniques: binary search, two pointers, sliding window. Tackle classic topics: graphs, greedy, recursion, dynamic programming. Design robust test cases, debug quickly, and avoid common pitfalls. Write clean, contest-ready solutions with pseudocode templates. Who this book is for: New programmers who want a confidence-boosting path into challenges. Students and self-taught devs preparing for contests or practice platforms. Anyone who wants to upgrade from writing code to solving problems effectively. By the end, you'll think like a problem solver, recognize patterns on sight, and ship solutions you can trust-under time limits.
