    at 1:14:58 shouldn’t node be inserted and deleted from beginning as its a stack??

    I would like to suggest to add subtitles. English is not my native language and my listening is also not good enough to understand completely. So, without subtitle , I encounter many difficulties . I really want to learn this full course more precisely. So adding subtitles will make me more easy to learn this course. And I really appreciate freeCodeCamp for making full free courses.

    I was wondering what Emo finally wound up doing…
    I totally am kidding of course. Really great video, thanks for posting.



  6. Avishkar Waikar on June 13, 2021 at 7:27 pm

    Can someone please explain me, where do we implement skip lists in real life!!
    I have searched a lot of documents and previous research papers and even the internet doesn’t provide a proper solution!!

  15. Ous Ali on June 13, 2021 at 7:36 pm

    Hi do you know the right order for studying data structures courses on this channel?Becuase there are:intro to data structures,data structures and algorithms,data structures from easy to advanced.
    And also what about c++ is there any courses in this channel about c++ other than the 4 hours course? Becuase I don’t believe that you can learn an entire programming language in four hours



  16. Jerome Browne on June 13, 2021 at 7:36 pm

    Is it okay to watch dispute only knowing JavaScript?



  17. Tech HackZ on June 13, 2021 at 7:38 pm

    if you just started with programming then u might struggle at some places but overall nice tutorial



  18. Hexi on June 13, 2021 at 7:38 pm

    There is an calculational error at 15:10 (second line from the bottom).



  19. Abdi MD on June 13, 2021 at 7:38 pm

    Is there any pre-requisite knowledge required before starting this course ?



  20. Abhigyan Chattopadhyay on June 13, 2021 at 7:40 pm

    Can someone explain the conversion of priority queue from min to max part at 1:45:59? I’m unable to follow what’s going on

    wooow, this is the best video i have come across on this topic. thanks you

  38. Me Arman on June 13, 2021 at 8:07 pm

    For path compression why is E F @ goes from F TO E instead of the prrvious a to b and c to d this really confuses me also why is it E taht gets designated as well as H WHY NOT SOME OTHER LETTER LIKE A OR B OR ANY OTHER ONES? this is in the union find path compression @ 2:55:13 just confsuing please help



  39. Daniel Carrasco Marín on June 13, 2021 at 8:07 pm

    I like this videos, but they are too long… Is better to have a lot of smaller videos which are easier to follow.



  40. Nikhil Ravulaparthy on June 13, 2021 at 8:08 pm

    Just a short note for everyone studying for Coding Interviews or just studying in general; the most imp DS’s are
    Arrays
    Stacks
    Linked Lists
    Queues
    Trees
    Graphs and
    Hash Tables



  41. gloobs on June 13, 2021 at 8:08 pm

  44. Karthick R on June 13, 2021 at 8:10 pm

    Can i just learn all this data structure’s concept from this video and then implement it in c or python or should i know java for sure?



  45. Madhav Humagain on June 13, 2021 at 8:10 pm

    At 2:53:50, probably A, B, C, D, E also point to G after F points to G.



  46. Abhishek Ghosh on June 13, 2021 at 8:11 pm

    Useless tutorial



  47. Marie Drapalova on June 13, 2021 at 8:17 pm

    Love the tutorial. Thank you very much. A friendly suggestion: Stay consistent with the operations on data structure. (e.g. Search, Access, Remove etc) and maybe define the meaning. I noticed sometimes you use ‘Search’ but really mean ‘Access’ and it becomes confusing for some of us :).



  48. Ehsan Hadid on June 13, 2021 at 8:17 pm

    32:22 , there is a bug in function "removeAt", the if statement should be OR instead of AND.
