Why I started competitive programming

Image
 I heard about competitive programming sometime in my first semester. At that time i was just beginning to learn c language . I just kind of looked into it .My only motivation for looking it up was  that everybody was talking about it , human nature maybe. After my first semester i had learnt nothing significant, although people comfortable with basic programming , began exploring different domains in the programming world. So i decided to begin my programming journey in my winter break.  Wait !!!

Who is dumb ?

It was mid 2020 and the time of elections had come , there were two contestants running for the same. Lets name them x and y.

If you decide to pursue the skill do remind yourselves of the vision each and everyday so you can keep your pace.  Some of you migh
