EPAM Mexico Algorithms study group.
- We have defined a learning path combining some books (listed at the bottom) to follow.
- Every Monday, a problem will be presented, according to the next topic listed in the learning path.
- A volunteer will be the owner of the topic, and will be responsible of defining the problem and the theoretical background.
- Developers will have the whole week to study the topic and to solve the problem with the most optimal solution.
- As a Developer, you should create your own branch from master repository
$ git checkout -b <my-branch-name> - Use your branch to commit your solutions, in the format/language you prefer.
- Next week, the topic owner will present the most optimal solution and the link between problem and theory.
- Any of the participants can present better/innovative solution, but as requisite it needs to be pushed into participant branch.
- An assigned moderator per week will help to have smooth conversation and topic discussions.
- After this, a new set topic will be presented according to the learning path.
Each topic will have the following convention: ##_<Topic>, having ## = topic number.
Example: 00_BigO for Big(O) Notation.
Inside the topic folder, on master branch the following files will be placed:
- A markdown file (.md) containing the problem instructions, called README.md.
- A set of .in and .out files, containing sample test cases (optional).
- A markdown file containing some of the theoretical background (optional).
To update the branch, with the new problems, use: $ git rebase -p origin/master
Participants are free to use the programming language they want.
