Cost, structure and search, worked on paper before anyone types a line.
Big-O, arrays, hash maps, sorting and binary search, drawn on a whiteboard before they're typed. You learn to say why one approach is faster, not just that it is.
Big-O · Hash maps · Sorting · Binary search
Recursion, trees, BFS, DFS, Dijkstra and topological sort, applied to dependency graphs and route maps instead of puzzles. You build a pathfinder and explain every step it took.
Recursion · BFS & DFS · Dijkstra · Topological sort
Subproblems, memoization and tabulation, taught from the recursive version you already understand. Three weeks, a dozen problems, and the moment it stops feeling like a trick.
Memoization · Tabulation · Recurrences · Knapsack
Minimax, alpha-beta, iterative deepening and Monte Carlo tree search — the ideas inside every board-game AI, worked on tic-tac-toe, Connect Four and finally chess.
Minimax · Alpha-beta · MCTS · Heuristics

Pick a course, or just write to us. Either way, you talk to the person who would teach you before anything is paid.
