🧠 Introduction If you're starting your DSA (Data Structures and Algorithms) journey, you've probably heard how important Time and Space Complexity are. But what exactly do they mean, and why should you care? In this blog, we’ll break down these fundamental concepts in a simple and beginner-friendly way. Whether you’re solving coding problems, preparing for interviews, or just curious to know how efficient your code is— understanding complexity is key . When we write code, it's not just about getting the correct output. It's also about how fast our code runs (⏱ Time Complexity) and how much memory it uses (💾 Space Complexity). These two factors help us measure the performance of any algorithm. As someone who is learning DSA from scratch, I’m documenting my learnings here to help other learners like me. I’ve also included visual aids, relatable examples, and some notes from my college YouTube channel and trusted websites—so you’ll get a well-rounded understanding...

  🚀 Introduction to DSA Welcome to my very first blog post! I’ve decided to begin my journey into the world of Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) — and I’m excited to share it with you all. This blog will not only track my daily learning progress but also help beginners like me who want to crack DSA step by step with clarity and consistency. 🔍 What I Learned Today 📘 What is DSA? (My Understanding) "Data Structure and Algorithm represents the logical relationship between individual elements of data, and Data Structures are a way of organizing all data efficiently." This is the definition I came across in a textbook, and it made a lot of sense to me. To break it down: Data Structures (DS) are the way we store and organize data (like arrays, linked lists, etc.) Algorithms (A) are the step-by-step procedures that process the data efficiently 📚 Verified from GeeksforGeeks According to GeeksforGeeks : Data Structures are ways to store data for differen...
