🚀 Starting My DSA Journey: 1 Problem a Day Challenge! 💡🎯

Hey everyone! 👋

I've decided to challenge myself—starting today, I’ll be solving one Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) problem every single day and sharing my journey with you all!** 🎯💻

🎯 Why This Challenge?

DSA is the backbone of coding—whether it’s for acing interviews, competitive programming, or building real-world applications. By committing to this challenge, I aim to:
✅ Sharpen my problem-solving skills 🧠
✅ Build a consistent coding habit 📈
✅ Explore multiple approaches to every problem 💡


📝 My Game Plan
Here’s how I’ll tackle this challenge:
📌 Daily Problem Solving: At least one DSA problem every day.
📌 Breakdown of Solutions:
🔴 Brute-force approach (First attempt)
🟡 Optimized approach (Better solution)
🟢 Most optimal approach (Best solution 🚀)
📌 Time & Space Complexity Analysis: Breaking down the efficiency of each solution ⏳
📌 Community Interaction: Share your thoughts, better approaches, or doubts in the comments! Let’s learn together. ⬇️


🔥 What Topics Will I Cover?
From basic to advanced, I’ll explore problems across:
✅ Arrays & Strings 🧵
✅ Linked Lists 🔗
✅ Stacks & Queues 🏗️
✅ Trees & Graphs 🌳
✅ Recursion & Backtracking 🔄
✅ Dynamic Programming 📊
✅ Bit Manipulation & Math ➗

I’ll be pulling problems from LeetCode, CodeChef, CodeForces, GeeksforGeeks, and more! 🌎💡
