❓ How the workshop runs

🤚 Problem Selection

• Chose any seat you want in the Computer Lab
• The OP will randomly select five (or seven) Leetcode problems from the list and post them for everyone to see.
• Take 10 minutes to read and understand the problem descriptions
• Pick one problem that you'd like to begin with; you can change your selected problem at any time.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Discussion

• Find friends seated nearby who are addressing the same problem.
• Engage in discussion to determine suitable algorithms and implementation.
• You have the flexibility to switch to a different problem and join another group discussing it anytime if you want.

🖋 Presentation

• Before presenting on the whiteboard, ensure you have successfully passed the Leetcode challenge by submitting your code.
• Step forward to the front of the room and present your solution on the whiteboard to share it with everyone.
• Make a PR and submit your code to the repository.

⚖️ Rules

• When three out of the five selected problems have been solved and solutions have been presented among all the participants, we conclude the session and head back home.
• If we are unable to solve the problems within 2 hours, we give up and head back home.
• Participants who have taken CMPT 307 are not permitted to work on easy-level problems.

💾 How to write a PR

• Type the following command to branch out and push your solution:

  git checkout -b [problem.no]-problem-name 
  git add .    
  git commit -m "Any commit message"  
  

  (e.g. 2022-05-24-Best-Time-to-Buy-and-Sell-Stock.py)
• Once you push your solution, return to the main branch

  git checkout main
