Arrays & Strings

Part of the AI Engineer Roadmap

In short

The most fundamental data structures — the majority of coding interview problems, including many ML-adjacent ones, reduce to array/string manipulation.

How to learn this

  1. 1Practice two-pointer and prefix-sum patterns on array problems.
  2. 2Solve string-manipulation problems (substrings, palindromes, anagrams).
  3. 3Aim for clean, bug-free code on easy problems before moving to medium difficulty.
