Greetings, young witch or wizard! π Welcome to the Chamber of Coding, a secret chamber beneath the dungeons of Hogwarts, Slytherin House's pride. This isn't just any repository; it's your enchanted guide to mastering "Cracking the Coding Interview" with the cunning and resourcefulness of a true Slytherin.
Venture deep into the chamber to find Python solutions for the most challenging puzzles from the muggle book. Whether you're a beginner in the magical arts of coding or already a master of spells, there's magic here for you.
- Solutions in Python: As spoken in Parseltongue, for elegance and power.
- Enchanted Comments: Because every spell requires an incantation.
- A Dash of Dark Magic: Beware! There might be challenges as tricky as facing a Basilisk.
Wish to add your own dark magic? Your contributions are welcome! Here's how you can contribute:
- Fork this repository (It's like creating a Horcrux, but safer and GitHub-approved).
- Clone your forked version to your local spellbook.
- Branch Out: Create your feature branch (
git checkout -b feature/YourMagicalFeature
). - Commit your changes (
git commit -m 'Add some DarkMagic'
). - Push to the branch (
git push origin feature/YourMagicalFeature
). - Open a Pull Request. Let the magic unfold!
- Be respectful and constructive. Remember, even Draco had his moments.
- Stay on topic. We're here to conquer the coding world, one spell at a time.
- No unforgivable curses: All contributions must adhere to the GPLv3 license, ensuring all spells remain free and open.
Want to run the solutions on your own machine? Here's how you can summon them:
git clone https://github.com/AadityaMuley/CrackingTheCodingInterview-PythonSolutions.git
cd CrackingTheCodingInterview-PythonSolutions
python3 the_solution_you_want_to_run.py
Replace the_solution_you_want_to_run.py with the name of the Python file you wish to execute. Abracadabra!
This repository and its enchanted scripts are bound by the powerful GPLv3 license, a spell that ensures all wizards, witches, and even Muggles can freely share, modify, and distribute these magical solutions. Much like the unbreakable vow, this license ensures that all contributions and derivatives remain as open and free as the Room of Requirement on a good day.
If you've managed to decode the secrets of this tome, congratulations! You possess true Slytherin cunning and resourcefulness. π Remember, in the world of coding, much like in the halls of Hogwarts, magic is real. Itβs found in the beauty of a well-crafted algorithm and the charm of a cleverly solved problem.
Through these solutions, you're learning to speak in Parseltongue, whispering to the serpents of Python that slither through our digital realm. Let these spells be your guide as you navigate the ever-twisting chambers of technology, outwit the Voldemorts of bugs, and unlock the Chamber of Secrets that is your untapped potential.
Happy coding, and may your code always compile on the first try (but if it doesn't, remember that even Dumbledore occasionally made mistakes).
P.S. Watch out for the basilisk. In coding, it often takes the form of an infinite loop...
Sincerely,
Aaditya Muley, Proud Member of the House of Slytherin
