Dear brethren, I can almost comeup with solution to problems, but miss one or two edge cases. This really sucks. For high rated people here, do you always prove correctness of algorithms when implementating or can you get away with just intuition? How many of you high rated peers has never proven or seen techniques of proof and just get by with killer intuition? Would love to here your opinions. Much love to all!!
You get away with AC.
You can get away with correct intuition
Usually I prove.
Mathematical intuition is mostly the result of practice.
When you routinely prove solutions, you see what is right and what is wrong.
In turn, that improves your initial guess for the next time you have to prove something.
So, no practice in proving, no experience to improve your guessing.
