Python + DSA Full Roadmap (Beginner to Advanced)
PART 1: Python Fundamentals
- Variables, Input/Output
- Data Types (int, float, str, bool)
- Type Casting
- If-else statements
- Loops (for, while)
- Functions (with parameters and return)
- Exception handling (try-except)
- Modules and import
- File Handling (open, read, write, close)
Resources: W3Schools, Programiz, YouTube - CodeWithHarry / Telusko
PART 2: Core Python (Deep Concepts)
- Strings (slicing, formatting, functions)
- Lists (indexing, methods, list comprehension)
- Tuples
- Sets
- Dictionaries
- Nested Data Structures
- Lambda, Map, Filter, Reduce
- Decorators & Generators
- OOP in Python (Classes, Objects, Inheritance, Polymorphism)
Project: Mini CLI app (like calculator or quiz game)
PART 3: DSA - Basics
- Arrays and Lists
Python + DSA Full Roadmap (Beginner to Advanced)
- Time & Space Complexity (Big O)
- Recursion (factorial, Fibonacci, palindrome)
- Searching Algorithms: Linear Search, Binary Search
- Sorting Algorithms: Bubble, Selection, Insertion, Merge Sort, Quick Sort
Practice: LeetCode (Easy), HackerRank
PART 4: Data Structures in Depth
- Stacks (list, deque, array implementation)
- Queues (simple, circular, deque, priority queue)
- Linked Lists: Singly, Doubly, Circular
- Hashing and Hashmaps (using Python dict)
Implement from scratch + solve problems
PART 5: Advanced DSA + Algorithms
- Trees (Binary Tree, BST, Tree Traversals)
- Heap (MinHeap, MaxHeap)
- Graphs (BFS, DFS, adjacency list/matrix)
- Backtracking (N-Queens, Sudoku Solver)
- Dynamic Programming (Fibonacci, Knapsack, LIS, etc.)
- Sliding Window, Two Pointers, Bit Manipulation
Platforms: LeetCode, GeeksforGeeks, InterviewBit
PART 6: Problem Solving & Mock Practice
- Daily DSA problem solving (2-3/day)
- Timed contests (Codeforces, AtCoder, LeetCode Weekly)
- Learn debugging skills
Python + DSA Full Roadmap (Beginner to Advanced)
- Read others' solutions to improve code quality
Platforms: LeetCode, Codeforces, HackerEarth
