I know how frustrating DSA feels in the beginning. You read a question… and it just doesn’t make sense. I went through the same thing. So instead of jumping into hard stuff, I focused on very basic patterns like: * simple array accessing * basic string accessing * palindrome * reverse (array/string) After solving around 20–25 easy problems, things actually started making sense. If you’re at that stage, don’t rush into medium problems. Build your base first—it really helps. I’ve also collected a small list of beginner-friendly problems while practicing. 👉 If you want it, just DM me, and I’ll share the list. Would love to know what helped you when you started DSA.
