Jim's Review
🐛
Jim doesn't code (worms lack keyboards), but if I did, this would be my bible. McDowell's breakdown of data structures, algorithms, and the interview process is incredibly thorough. It's less of a "read cover to cover" book and more of a training manual you burrow through problem by problem. Essential for anyone prepping for tech interviews. Four worms — would be five if Jim could actually solve a binary tree problem.
