Congratz, could you do a video of your standard code that you already had in your files and how you usually prepare for each competition? In regards to the setup and what they all do, would be great :)
No way, solving millenium problems requires far broader thinking...this problems are like puzzles, designed to be solved by some tricky observations... I think neal would agree as well
i don't know what makes you guyz think that if someone is very good at speed blitzing these programming contests then he is a god of mathematics and computer science
@@kxb6098 I think it is well known that Grigori Jakowlewitsch Perelman was able to solve the Poincare Conjecture after they rephrased this (millenium) problem as a "mathematics olympiad" type of question. Math professor and researcher: Po-shen Loh (head coach of the math olympiad USA team) himself said that people with the ability of solving puzzles in math / programming competitions tend to perform very well in research mathematics / computer science. You can look this up in the following Podcast: "Po-Shen Loh: Mathematics, Math Olympiad, Combinatorics & Contact Tracing | Lex Fridman Podcast #183" - highly recommended. Interesting timestamp where he talks about this topic: 57:50
He is over 200 points ahead of the 2nd place. And he did not participate in Leetcode contest in 2 years 😂 And also over 500 points ahead on codeforces compared to the leetcode guy in second place. So I'm not sure exactly how he is supposed to be 'afraid'. Because he outclasses everyone on Leetcode by a huge margin.
It depends. If you compare your current level of coding to him then obviously this video discourages you. But why don't we just admire such god-level coding and start to improve ourselves ?
