What are the must know algorithms for data structures every programmer should master? Alternatively, if you

Hey! Great thread.

For must know algorithms for data structures, I’d add:

- Linked Lists: Cycle Detection, Reversal
- Heaps: K-way Merge
- Strings: KMP (if you’re feeling fancy)

Overrated? Maybe some super-optimized DP.

Resources: “Algorithm Design Manual” by Skiena is *chef’s kiss*.

And yep, interview nerves are the worst. Practice out loud!
