Checkpoint: stacks, search, and intervals

53 / 170

Checkpoint: stacks, search, and intervals/Lesson 1 of 3·About 71 min

Cold recall

Three problems from the last three units, rebuilt with no lesson above them.

Same rules as the last checkpoint. No looking at earlier submissions, and no reading the lesson the problem came from until you have finished or genuinely stalled.

One of these three is a monotonic stack, one is a binary search that is not over a sorted array, and one is a greedy interval selection. Deciding which is which before you type is the skill being tested.

Problem· 30 min

Problem· 20 min

Koko Eating Bananas, cold

You have solved this one before. Rebuild it from scratch without looking at your old submission. If the approach does not come back within a few minutes, that is the signal that it needs another pass.

Problem· 18 min

You have solved this one before. Rebuild it from scratch without looking at your old submission. If the approach does not come back within a few minutes, that is the signal that it needs another pass.
