General Discussion

Do we have course about algorithms?

Hey guys:

I just attended an amazon's technical exercise the other day. I found I am lacking plenty of basic algorithms and data structure knowledge which I never encountered before. If one of the goals to treehouse is to help students to get into an enterprise like amazon or google, there should be some classes involved. Can't find it in the library.

Sadly, there's no course about algorithms. I also really think that would be an important course because we use algorithms all the time weather we're getting the length of a/an list/array (easy algorithm) or if we are quick-sorting an array/list (more advanced algorithms). If you'd like to practice writing algorithms, however, CodeEval is an excellent place to practice them.

Good luck!

Hope this helps, Alex

Thanks, Alex! I will try CodeEval later!

No problem :)
