10- Practice , Review and Mock Interviews: Continuously practice DSA problems and revise key
concepts. Solve a variety of algorithmic problems to improve your problem-solving skills and
reinforce your understanding. Prepare for technical interviews by participating in mock interviews.
Practice explaining your thought process, optimizing algorithms, and discussing trade-offs.
Remember that DSA is a continuous learning process, and it's crucial to keep practicing and solving
problems regularly. As you progress, you'll gain a deeper understanding of algorithms and data
structures, which will help you tackle more complex programming challenges and excel in technical
interviews.
