In this lecture, we begin Maths for DSA – Part 1, where we cover number system basics that are extremely important for DSA problems and coding interviews.

Many beginners struggle with math-based logic in DSA — this lecture focuses on clear understanding + practical implementation.

Topics covered in this video:

Why Maths is important for DSA

Number system basics for problem solving

How to count digits in a number

Counting digits using logarithmic formula

Handling special cases:

Positive numbers

Zero

Negative numbers

Time complexity analysis of digit-count logic

Clean and interview-ready Java implementation

This lecture will help you build strong mathematical intuition, which is required for:

Arrays & Strings problems

Recursion

Binary Search

Competitive programming

This video is part of my Java + DSA course by ShashCode, designed for:

DSA beginners

College students

Placement & interview preparation

Strong problem-solving foundations

👉 Watch till the end to avoid common mistakes in digit-based problems.
