Day 06: Combinations are Weird but Make Sense

Still working through my math review. I got a little tripped up when it brought up combinations but man it all makes sense logically. One thing I love about math is that it builds off of the basics really well. At least most of the time. Sometimes it is absolute nonsense LOL.

TLDR;

Okay, so here are the highlights of what I did:

  • Continued my math review. Almost done but got confused at the last point on combinations were repetition can take place.
  • Continued going through a YouTube video on Big O Notation from the G.O.A.T. freeCodeCamp. It’s a 2 hour video I might glean some new information from the video so I figure why not.

Conclusion

That’s all for today. This is my sixth round of the “#100daysofcode” challenge. I will be continuing my work from round five into round six. I am currently working through the book “Cracking the Coding Interview” by Gayle Laakmann McDowell. My goal is to become more familiar with algorithms and data structures. This goal was derived from my goal to better understand operating systems and key programs that I use in the terminal regularly e.g. Git. This goal was in term derived from my desire to better understand the fundamental tools used for coding outside of popular GUIs. This in turn was derived from my desire to be a better back-end developer.

I have no idea if my path is correct but I am walking down this road anyways. Worst case scenario I learn a whole bunch of stuff that will help me out on my own personal projects.
