candidate-master-againThe past one week has been very very good for me as i managed to get 3 bronze medals at hackerrank. Once again i moved from O(n) to O(log N) level. The following are the three competitions in which i won the medals:
1. Zenhacks:
This contest was hosted on hackerrank by a company called ‘ZENEFITS’. Forbes ranked them as the hottest startup of 2014. Many Many experienced coders participated in the contest. The problems were of varying difficulty so that coders of all level would enjoy it. The contest was quite good.

2. 101 Hack February’15:
One funny thing which happened in this contest for me is that i managed to solve the ‘Moderate’ difficulty problem completely, while i got only partial point for the easy problem. I loved the moderate problem which was a constructive algorithm type question
Rank in the contest: 140/840

3. Weekly Challenge – Week 14:
This is one of the best contest i have ever had in Hackerrank. I managed to solve First three problems ( out of 5 ) within very short span of time and hence my rank increased considerably after this contest. My percentile score became 95.69 which is my best score till now in this website. I aimed to get a silver medal from this contest but unfortunately i couldn't get it, as i was unable to solve the ‘ADVANCED’ difficulty problem. Though the ‘DIFFICULT’ difficulty problem was s dynamic programming question, i managed to figure out the logic very quickly and the main thing is that i got accepted in the first attempt. I can obviously see my own improvement in solving DP questions, which would seem like a mystery for me in my early days of programming.
Rank in the contest: 314/1930
