Could by any chance lessons be sorted in increasing order of difficulty? I am feeling like Binary Search should be covered before segment trees. Perhaps it could be easier for beginners to wrap their head around the problems that way.

    I try to choose topics of different difficulty and from various sections, and I do it on purpose. One of the reasons is that EDU is in beta, and we want to try how it works for different topics. Another reason is to give something interesting for everybody. I don't consider EDU to be a regular online course, it's more like wikipedia. Eventually we will fill it with all interesting topics.

Hi, Thanks for these awesome tutorials. I have a suggestion to please make some series on number theory and covering problems on concepts of combinatorics, probability and mathematical deductions.

Stop it! If you reveal the secrets we won't be able to have any interactive problems anymore!

I can't hear audio for the section on Binary Search on Answer. I went on YouTube and I could hear audio but not for EDU section. :(
