Course Overview
Learn so you can see it with your eyes closed
This is an animated, visual and spatial way to learn data structures and algorithms
- Our brains process different types of information differently - evolutionarily we are wired to absorb information best when it is visual and spatial i.e. when we can close our eyes and see it
- More than most other concepts, Data Structures and Algorithms are best learnt visually. These are incredibly easy to learn visually, very hard to understand most other ways
- This course has been put together by a team with tons of everyday experience in thinking about these concepts and using them at work at Google, Microsoft and Flipkart
What's Covered:
- Big-O notation and complexity
- Stacks
- Queues
- Trees
- Heaps
- Graphs and Graph Algorithms
- Linked lists
- Sorting
- Searching

Some of the colors chosen for illustrations were not wise. The colors would blend in with the white background and would not show properly. I had to adjust my screen sometimes because of it. Also, the sound was off sometimes. Sometimes I had to up the volume and sometimes I had to down it.

The course is a little monotonous. Though the general goal is achieved. For a beginner level, it suits enough.
