To get straight to the point. I know the basics and implementation of segment tree but I can't solve problems using it. Because I don't know its applications and advantages (Practical ones).
So can anyone have a list of problems going from easy to a medium level so that I can try to get my basics straight?
I kinda have the same problem for DSU. So, If anyone has list for that, please share it will be very helpful.

Segment Trees Problems
Easy
Easy without segment trees but you can solve it using segment tree as well
Point update and Range Queries
Range XOR Queries

Medium
You need to know lazy propogation idea for this.

https://codeforces.net/contest/339/problem/D
https://codeforces.net/problemset/problem/459/D
Can be done using other data structures too.
Hard (Maybe try these in future)

Other than these you can checkout this awesome blog for more questions (not sorted according to difficulty).
Nice :)
