Do you find it difficult to develop a habit of Coding? If yes, then we have a most effective solution for you – all you neveropen need to do is solve one programming problem each day without any break, and BOOM, the results will surprise you! Let us tell you how:
Suppose you commit to improve yourself and get better 0.1% every day for one year (very much realistic goal it is!). Now, as per the calculations – 1.01^365 = 37.78, you will actually end up being 37 times better compared to your present state by taking such small steps. This is the power of Consistency!!
If we relate it to the career goals – when you solve just a single programming problem each day for 1 year consistently then by the end of the year, you’d have solved around 365 Problems!!! Even you can say it like you would have solved a majority of the programming problems that are often asked in the interviews of tech giants – Isn’t it something great…??
And don’t worry, we’re not only providing you with this guidance or motivation – but we are having the required platform and resources as well for you that will surely help you to keep your motivation levels always up. We are talking about the neveropen ‘Problem Of The Day’ challenge where you will develop the habit of coding and become a better & consistent coder by solving 1 problem based on Data Structures and Algorithms every day and stand a chance to win exciting prizes too.
The questions will cover different topics based on Data Structures and Algorithms and you will have 24 hours to channel your inner Geek and solve the challenge. It would be like:
Each Day You Code == Great Rewards
