This blog is just an appreciation post and a heartfelt thank you to Shayan. Whatever rating I have today is because of him. I started with zero knowledge of programming and used to watch his streams to learn new topics like arrays, strings, math, greedy algorithms, binary search, etc.

I was especially afraid of binary search and math, but Shayan motivated me to keep moving forward without fear. There were times when I felt discouraged, stuck on certain concepts that seemed impossible to grasp. However, his guidance and encouragement helped me push through those struggles.

Thank you, Shayan! You inspire people like me—those who are new to programming and hesitant to compete due to self-doubt and lack of confidence. Your support means a lot!

I will keep moving ahead and try my best to improve everyday.
