cst 370: week 1

 This week, I learned about the basics of data structures and algorithms. I enjoyed watching the videos about what an algorithm s, Euclid's algorithm for GCD, and pseudocode. I really enjoy pseudocode because it helps me plan my technical interview questions. I also read the reading material on linked lists, stacks, and queues. I am familiar with these in Python, but had to learn in Java for the course.

For class participation, I asked a few questions in Discord. I asked the professor if it was ok to use Python, and he mentioned only C++ and Java. I also helped a student with a suggestion - they asked if anyone know of any resources to use for practicing technical interviews outside of Leetcode, and I suggested Neetcode since I like that resource a lot.
