This is a very comprehensive 94-part course on competitive programming. It gets you from knowing basic programming to being a yellow-red rated coder on Codeforces / CodeChef / TopCoder / etc.

The primary objectives of this course are to learn about 30 different algorithms and data structures. The algorithm tutori...

This 28-part course consists of tutorials on data structures and algorithms. It alternates between tutorials and implementation, and you get to implement every algorithm. You can think of this course as a "Free Online Nano Book".

This is a 100+ part playbook that takes you from basic C++ programming to a Gold medal at IOI. It has tutorials on 30+ algorithms and data structures, and 75+ problems based on those topics, sorted by increasing difficulty.

This playlist covers the required amount of C++ / Java / Python knowledge you need for programming contests such as Olympiad in Informatics, CodeChef, Codeforces, etc.

Expected time to completion: 5-10 sessions.

The programming language topics covered are input-ou...

Hello everyone, wanted to share the Competitive Programmer's Handbook (~300 page PDF). I think reading this book will take you 10x lesser time than Introduction to Algorithms CLRS while teaching you just as much. The book has ~10x lesser words than CLRS and 5x more diagrams (lesser theory and math). Diagrams are very helpful in learning algorithms because it is all about visualization. That is also why this community has a lot of short video tutorials on various algorithms, because visualizing it makes it easy to understand. Enjoy!

Credit to Shiv Pratap Singh for telling me about the handbook.

We are introducing this problems playlist, which contains problems suitable for coders preparing for ICPC contest.

Problems are chosen from Russian Subregionals. Russian contests have been known as the top quality programming contests for preparing for ICPC nationals/regionals and World finals.

You must join our public group on Codeforces to be able to submit your solutions.

We will be providing other playlists in the future with harder problems (so it targets coders preparing for a higher level ICPC contest). This playlist is designed for coders preparing for first stage contests (subregional/national) contests.

You can see the list of contests, and enter the contest corresponding to this playlist. You can find the statement of each...
