Work on segment tree idea to solve timeout issue. After the contest, Julia has more time to relax, and try different ideas to solve this hard algorithm on HackerRank.
Previous blog
Will come back to write C# code to try segment tree idea.
Read editorial notes.

Need to spend time to figure out this linear recurrence for programming contest .

Study C# submissions:
1. C# submission
2. C# submission
Think about the strategies of HackerRank contests - should work on medium algorithm instead of hard one. Math part is not easy to figure out in less than 24 hours.
Spent 2+ hours to go over the submissions on this hard algorithm, get the data - who are those talents? What they are sharing? A special group with strong math or research abilities?
1. Competitive programmer talking about achievements.
2. People good at math - problem solving on the algorithm - a few of them are competitive programmers.
3. programming contest
4. Math Ph.D. graduate (better programmer compared to Julia)

5. Figure out something new in computer science master graduate study:
From January 2015, she started to practice leetcode questions; she trains herself to stay focus, develops "muscle" memory when she practices those questions one by one. 2015年初, Julia开始参与做Leetcode, 开通自己第一个博客. 刷Leet code的题目, 她看了很多的代码, 每个人那学一点, 也开通Github, 发表自己的代码, 尝试写自己的一些体会. She learns from her favorite sports – tennis, 10,000 serves practice builds up good memory for a great serve. Just keep going. Hard work beats talent when talent fails to work hard.
