    What could be a better start to Google Kickstart 2020 than getting 1st out of over 10k participants?
    Contest site: codingcompetitions.withgoogle...
    Unfortunately, I'm limited on time, so I decided to not make explanations (unless people really want them). Google should release their solutions after the round. If you have questions, then you can ask them in the comments below and I will try to answer them.
    I created a Discord server for discussions and more: / discord

    For those feeling discouraged, it's simply the rule of 10000 hours. Do something for that long and you become good at it. This man, has devoted his time to master competitive programming since high school. Ask him to throw a baseball, dribble a basketball, or play advanced music - probably won't be able to. It's all what you and how much time you devote and how hard you work. So props to him, but it's not impossible. We all have this ability and potential.

      ​@@jv1192 dude, competitive programming is not required for getting good jobs at good it companies (in majority of cases). the reason is that competitive programming requires different skills from the real world (you will never ever have at your job a binary string, with some operation defined on it, asking you to maximize / minimize some quantity). don't quit because you don't know some **esoteric** algorithms.
      to be clear, there are some jobs where you need to have some strong as search engine - programming or high performance computing, but they do not constitute the majority of the job market out there.

      @@3dblingcmg762 first of all "only" knowing those languages are very good and will probably give you a job already and second of all i don't think companies really care about how fast you write except you have to atleast be able to finish small projects within 1 hour. So if my predictions are correct you can basically get a job depending on how good your knowledge within HTML, CSS, Javascript and c#, and if you get a job within those languages a tip is just continue learning python / java or any other language that you want to learn. (I am no expert nor do i have a job but i think my information is correct and never stop believing in yourself) (and sorry if i made some grammar mistakes or typing mistakes)

    This is what competitive programming (aka preparing for cs olympiads) looks like. He got gold (and first place) in 2020 and silver in 2019 in the IOI (international olympiad in informatics), aka he's a beast. These problems were... incomprehensibly easy for him, compared to IOI problems. I only got to the national stages in my country and went to some smaller international competitions and I still had to work hard. I can't even imagine what he went through to become like this. This guy spent hours and hours each day to become this good, and he deserves a lot of respect.

      Out of interest,
      How do you find these competitions?
      I'm a current lower year Sixth Former and I want to do comsci in university.
      That being said, I believe these competitions will act as an opportunity for and towards my education.
      Thank you

      @Abaddon Fail Пунктуация в английском вообще довольно спорная вещь. Она, безусловно, существует в академической науке, в литературном языке, но на практике она или вообще не используется или используется крайне интуитивно. Даже в лонгридах на всяких реддитах и прочих соц.платформах люди с нативным английским частенько пренебрегают правилами. На самом деле одна из фишечек живого языка.
