ITMO Algorithms Course
By pashka, 4 years ago, In English

Hello Codeforces!

I teach a course on algorithms and data structures at ITMO University. During the last year I was streaming all my lectures on Twitch and uploaded the videos on Youtube.

This year I want to try to do it in English.

This is a four-semester course. The rough plan for the first semester:

  • Algorithms, complexity, asymptotics
  • Sorting algorithms
  • Binary heap
  • Binary search
  • Linked lists, Stack, Queue
  • Amortized analysis
  • Fibonacci Heap
  • Disjoint Set Union
  • Dynamic Programming
  • Hash Tables

The lectures are open for everybody. If you want to attend, please fill out this form to help me pick the optimal day and time.

See you!

All I can say is Thank You. I know how much effort it takes to prepare for just one lecture, forget about creating content for an entire semester. Great effort

        I guess u wanted to say "ITMO was already good even before tourist joined".

        But I think some may interpret it as "ITMO was good before tourist joined and now it's not good."

        I personally interpreted in the second way initially.

    Why do you want it in English when you don't seem to speak it too well?

pashka Better if you could restrict the response to 1 and enable email option. Somebody could spam it right now maybe.

I am sure this will make a big evolution in CP community. Today there is not any lecture videos that well structured and in English.

This is literally what I was looking for. I'm really afraid of participating in my first round without having a proper introduction to algorithms. Thank you very much pashka!
