Suggest me methods to improve my competitive programming skills
By _bruh_bruh, history, 4 months ago, In English

Hello everybody! This is my second account and I want to upgrade my skills of solving problems on codeforces. On my first account my maximum rating was at 1315, despite on my rating I know many algorithms like dfs, bfs, dp, segtree, sqrt-decomposition, binary search, disjoint sets union and other popular algorithms related to graphs. However, I use them rarely, because of, intresting and difficult problems rated approximately at 2000, but, I have some problems solving div 2 C, so I have started solving 1700 problems, but, I want to ask from experienced competitive programmers are there any other ways to upgrade my skills essentially?

Solve More Problems and attend Contest Regular.You Should Start with your old account.I think alternative account of cf is very bad that will decrease your confidence and motivation also.You Should start your old account.

    practice atcoder begineer contest.Try topic wise questions in initial phase , you can do them from codechef after that remove tag from your account and then practice question from c2 ladder or acd ladder or you can also practice from problemset of codeforces.

1.Practice EDU rounds and Atcoder Beginner Contest because there are lots of classical problems here and many problems evolved from a classic problems.

2.Correct your wrong answers after every contest you've paticipated.This is a process of finding and filling gaps.

3.Proficiency in common algorithms and tricks.Try to use template and understand the theory of them.By using template proficiently,your efficiency on coding will imporve.
