DSA with Java - Beginner Roadmap

Step 1: Master Java Basics (1-2 weeks)

Before starting DSA, learn the following Java fundamentals:

- Variables, Data Types, Operators

- Loops, Conditionals

- Functions and Recursion

- Arrays & Strings Basics

- Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

Resources:

- Apna College Java Playlist

- Kunal Kushwaha Java Bootcamp

Step 2: Learn Core Data Structures (2-4 weeks)

Understand and implement:

- Arrays, Strings, Linked List

- Stack & Queue

- HashMap and HashSet

Practice easy-level problems on LeetCode and GFG.

Use Apna College's or Kunal Kushwaha's DSA playlists.

Step 3: Learn Core Algorithms (4-8 weeks)

Important algorithm categories:

- Recursion & Backtracking

- Sorting (Bubble, Merge, Quick)

- Searching (Binary Search)

- Sliding Window, Two Pointer, Hashing

- Dynamic Programming (Knapsack, LIS)

- Trees (Traversal, Diameter, LCA)


DSA with Java - Beginner Roadmap

- Graphs (BFS, DFS, Dijkstra, Union-Find)

Use Striver's or Love Babbar's DSA Sheet for problem tracking.

Step 4: Competitive Programming & Interview Prep

Start solving timed problems and mock interviews on:

- LeetCode

- Codeforces

- GeeksforGeeks

- HackerRank

Track your progress and review problems regularly.

Suggested Weekly Plan

Week 1: Java basics (variables, loops, arrays)

Week 2: Functions, recursion, strings

Week 3: Arrays & sorting

Week 4: HashMap, Stack, Queue

Week 5: Linked List, Two pointers

Week 6: Recursion, Backtracking

Week 7: Trees: Traversals, height, LCA

Week 8: Graphs: BFS, DFS

Week 9+: DP, Sliding Window, Bit Manipulation
