Python & JAVA Solutions for Leetcode (inspired by haoel's leetcode)

Remember solutions are only solutions to given problems. If you want full study checklist for code & whiteboard interview, please turn to jwasham's coding-interview-university.

Also, there are open source implementations for basic data structs and algorithms, such as Algorithms in Python and Algorithms in Java.

I'm currently working on Analytics-Zoo - an unified Data Analytics and AI platform. Check it out, if you are interested in big data and deep learning.

Problems & Solutions
