    Best 600Rs Ever Spent...

    I ordered this book as I wanted to prepare myself for product based company interview.And Let me tell you, this book can clearly help building a strong fundamental for understanding data structures and algorithms. Some portions of this are taken out by author in an effort to reduce the price, but don't worry. These parts are available online and you can access it from there.

    Wonderful

    This book is not for the beginners, it works when you want variety of questions which you gonna face in interview. Beginners can't understand the explanation. If you are are not beginners and try to solve some amazing revision and concept you can go for it.

    Excellent book, but do you need it?

    As other reviewers have mentioned, it's an excellent book, since the author had the privilege to work in some of the top software companies that we aspire to.

    So, my advice would be to first study the topics of algorithms, programming etc. from good books. If you st...

    The missing ingredient!

    Was it ever your dream to be in one of the top-notch companies India (the likes of Microsoft, Amazon, Adobe etc) & you thought the interview rounds were too hard. Well, the rounds are hard (believe me) only because facing those questions on the spot makes your brain go drifting somewhere else (happened to me..).

    But if you already had a taste of whats going to come, you are prepared, you are confident & you will give it your best shot.


    With a systematic approach even tough goals can be ach...
