Revision en1, by Professor_Anitha_Modi, 2020-04-20 20:00:05

Greetings to my fellow students,
I came to know that my fans are present on this platform and so I decided to send a message from my side.

Having a good knowledge of Data Structures(You obviously know that I'm a pro after attending my lectures), I find myself in a place to guide my students. So here are some pro tips:

1. Use Python: Well obviously, you expected this since Python is the best suited language for competitive programming(Not the case that I don't know any other language). A study from Nirma University conducted in 2002(Coincidence? I think not) revealed that programmers that use Python tend to get better ranks in Google Codejam 69% of the times.

2. Know tries: All string questions can be solved using tries, Change my mind

3. Have a healthy discussion about things: I nominate all of you to comment below some pro tips like me. Don't get offended if I didn't tag you, I tagged only those who I think would respond.

In the end, I would like to thank Prof. Daiwat Vyas for inspiring me to write this blog and express my words.
