What is Competitive Coding👨‍💻

As Wikipedia says, competitive programming is a mind sport usually held over the Internet or a local network, involving participants trying to program according to provided specifications.

Basically, it is a type of contest where a number of programmers attempt to solve programming questions in a limited amount of time with under some preconditions set by the organizer. You can write your solution in any programming language that you’re comfortable with. Solutions should pass all of the test cases (given and hidden) in order to be accepted under certain time and space limits.

Time and Space Complexity plays a very major role in competitive coding. You might pass all the public and hidden test cases and your code would have satisfied all the given conditions, but if the written code is not efficient in the time and memory aspect then you can’t win any competitive coding contest. Best Code should take the least possible time and memory (i.e., space) to compile and run to provide the best outputs.

Big tech companies, like Facebook, Google, Amazon, Microsoft etc hire through competitive programming competitions. As an added bonus, various online competitions offer some amazing prizes for the winners.
