Developed a reusable LeetCode practice library in the DaleStudy/leetcode-study repository, focusing on arrays, dynamic programming, strings, and tree/backtracking problems. Applied JavaScript to implement solutions for challenges such as Two Sum, product except self, and top-k frequent elements, while introducing bit-count utilities and optimizing the House Robber problem from depth-first search to iterative dynamic programming for improved performance. Built a dynamic programming suite covering climbing stairs, maximum subarray, and decode ways, and created efficient string utilities for anagram and palindrome validation. Emphasized clean, maintainable code and performance tuning, demonstrating strong skills in algorithm design and data structures.
Month: 2025-11 | DaleStudy/leetcode-study Key features delivered: - Array and frequency utilities including bit counting: implemented multiple array problems (Two Sum, duplicates check, top-k frequent, longest consecutive sequence, product except self) and added a bit-count utility. Notable commits span two-sum solution, duplicates check, top-k frequent elements, longest consecutive sequence fix, product-of-array-except-self, and bit count utility. - House Robber optimization (DFS to DP): introduced DFS solution and refactored to iterative DP for efficiency, delivering faster runtimes for larger inputs. - Dynamic Programming Suite: DP practice problems including climbing stairs, maximum subarray, and decode ways to build a reusable DP toolkit. - String processing utilities: anagram check and palindrome validation utilities implemented with efficient techniques (sliding window and hashing). - Tree and Backtracking problems: BST validation, combination-sum (DFS), and 3Sum explored to strengthen backtracking patterns and correctness. Major bugs fixed: - Resolved timeout in the longest consecutive sequence by switching from a naive approach to an efficient DP-based solution, significantly improving worst-case performance. - Implemented correctness and performance refinements across DP problems and string utilities to reduce edge-case failures and improve reliability. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Delivered a versatile, reusable LeetCode practice library covering arrays, DP, strings, and trees/backtracking, accelerating problem solving and onboarding for future work. - Demonstrated end-to-end capability from analysis and algorithm design to implementation and performance tuning, with concrete commit-backed deliveries. - Established design patterns for DP, DFS-to-DP refactors, and utility modules that can be composed for new problems. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Algorithm design and optimization (DP, sliding window, two-pointer, hash maps, bit manipulation) - Data structures: arrays, hash-based frequency counts, trees, and backtracking search - Language-agnostic algorithm implementation with a focus on clean, maintainable code and readability - Performance awareness: explicit focus on runtime improvements and timeout fixes
