Today was... intense.
I had my Computer Networks exam, and wow, it really put me through some trouble.
The paper was tough, especially this one question on Distance Vector Routing – it completely threw me off. If anyone knows how to solve this, please help in the comments.
For a second, I genuinely questioned all my prep. It felt like the more I stared at it, the less sense it made.
The rest of the theory was okayish, but the whole thing took me almost the entire 3 hours – I wrapped up around 2 hours and 50 minutes in. Barely had time to breathe!
But hey, the day wasn’t just about struggling with routing protocols.
After the exam, I jumped into some DSA to reset my brain, and I think I needed that badly.
Solved two variations of the Knapsack problem today:
- Equal Sum Partition
- Count of Subsets with a Given Sum
Both were tricky but super satisfying to get through.
It feels like each of these problems sharpens my understanding of recursion and dynamic programming a little more.
It’s also Day 2 of my Gfg 160 Days of DSA challenge!
- ✅ Move All Zeroes to End of Array
- ✅ Reverse an Array
These were lighter and gave me some good momentum.
I like how these foundational problems remind me of how far I've come with problem-solving.
To finish off the day, I did a quick 15-minute Quant session, just to switch things up and refresh my brain. It wasn’t anything major, just enough to help me feel like I didn’t drown in networks and arrays entirely.
