DSA / CP Problems

Here, you'll find an array of problems sourced from platforms like Leetcode, GeeksForGeeks, CodeForces, and CodeStudio. Additionally, I've included some handy scripts to streamline your coding experience, such as automatic templating and code prettifying.

Handy Scripts

Automatic Templating

To simplify your workflow, I've provided a script for automatic templating. You can create a new Python or C++ file based on templated provided in Templates folder. You can either set it up as a VSCode task or run it standalone using Python.

Setting up as a VSCode task:

Setup task

1. Press Ctrl+Shift+P.
2. Select Configure Tasks.
3. Choose Create template.
4. Copy and paste the provided JSON from Scripts/tasks.json into the task configuration.

Run task

1. Press Ctrl+Shift+P.
2. Type Create template.
3. Pass the reqiured cstr (for more info, see below) without the quotes. For example : cf/123a/cpp, lc/223/py, etc.

Running as a standalone Python script:

cd Scripts
python create.py --cstr="{platform_shortform}/{problem_number}/{language}"

For example:

python create.py --cstr="cf/1234a/cpp"

Code Prettify + Caching Output

I've created a simple prettified.py script to not only format your Python and C++ code but also intelligently caches the output. This means that if a file hasn't been modified since the last prettifying operation, it won't be reformatted unnecessarily.

[!NOTE] It requires clang-format for formatting C++ files though.

Simply run:

cd Scripts
python prettified.py

[!NOTE]
This script also functions as a pre-commit hook, ensuring that your code is formatted before any commits.

Just a Few More Ideas

Here are some future enhancements I'm considering:

• Automatically generating README.md files for every problem based on a template.
• Implementing a tiny database using SQLite to map problems with details like name, tags, difficulty, etc.
• Developing a CLI or a simple static web app for displaying stats, such as the number of problems solved, difficulty split, etc.
