DSA Crash Course: Dynamic Programming
Dynamic programming (DP) is one of the more advanced (and confusing) parts of data structures and algorithms, so much so that Meta has actually banned their interviewers from asking DP questions. Unfortunately, most other companies aren't afraid to throw a DP question out there, so it's best for you to be prepared.
If you need additional support taking those skills and actually applying them, take Alvin's complete data structures and algorithms course on Structy. You can try out the concepts yourself in their interactive code editor and learn advanced DSA patterns like stack exhaustive recursion.

Hey Programmers!
I'm Alvin. I'm a software engineer with a serious passion for teaching. I'm a former Google Software Engineer. I'm also a former Lead Curriculum Developer of a top coding bootcamp. I'm a Featured Instructor on the freeCodeCamp YouTube channel, where my lectures have accumulated over 6 million views.
I have spent the better part of the last decade teaching students the skills needed to be a great developer and land their dream job.
Through years of experience leading in the classroom, working with students one-on-one, and in front of the video camera, I've developed a teaching style that I'm excited to share with you. I believe that gradual progression is the key to building robust knowledge that you'll be able to apply in your interviews and on the job. We'll go slow so that you don't miss a step. With my system, you'll enter the course as a beginner, but leave with the skills to land your dream job.
