About this event

Any successful programmer, sooner or later, needs to learn algorithms and data structures. Many interviews at tech companies like Google require you to have knowledge of these concepts. Do not hesitate to join this event to step on the way to becoming tech savvy!
This event series consists of 3 parts:
Algorithms and Data Structures overview
Common Sorting Algorithms
Graph Traversal and Pathfinding
This series is dedicated to making you familiar with basic algorithms and data structures. During the second event, we will learn what types of sorting algorithms exist, and how some of them work. Particularly, we will do a live coding session of Bubble and Merge sorts.
Requirements:
Basic JavaScript knowledge
Some programming concepts are nice to have (recursion, array manipulations)

Agenda

Intros	Go over the structure of the event.
Sorting Algorithms Overview	We will learn what sorting algorithms exist, what their differences are and why you would use one over the other.
Bubble Sort Theory	This section will cover the most basic sorting algorithm: Bubble Sort. We will understand how it works and go over a simple visualization.
Bubble Sort Demo	This section will involve a live-coding segment, where we will implement Bubble Sort using JavaScript.
Merge Sort Theory	Here, we will cover the merge sort. We will understand how it works and go over a simple visualization.
Merge Sort Demo	This demo is dedicated to implementing a merge sorting algorithm with JavaScript.
Q & A	It’s time for all of your questions you had during the session!
