## Overview
This repository provides a structured 6-week self-study roadmap for mastering Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) using Python 3. The content is designed for beginners and focuses on theory, hands-on coding, problem-solving patterns, and real-world mini-projects. This is ideal for preparing for interviews, placements, and enhancing your algorithmic thinking.

## Roadmap
### Week 1: Introduction to Python and Basic Concepts
- **Python Basics**: Syntax, variables, data types, and control structures.
- **Functions**: Definition, scope, and recursion.
- **Data Structures**: Lists, tuples, sets, and dictionaries.

### Week 2: Time Complexity and Big O Notation
- **Understanding Complexity**: What is time complexity?
- **Analyzing Algorithms**: Best, average, and worst-case scenarios.
- **Common Complexity Classes**: O(1), O(n), O(log n), O(n^2).

### Week 3: Fundamental Data Structures
- **Arrays**: Operations and applications.
- **Linked Lists**: Singly and doubly linked lists.
- **Stacks and Queues**: Implementation and use cases.

### Week 4: Trees and Graphs
- **Binary Trees**: Traversals, insertion, and deletion.
- **Binary Search Trees**: Properties and operations.
- **Graphs**: Representation, traversal algorithms (DFS, BFS).

### Week 5: Advanced Algorithms
- **Sorting Algorithms**: Bubble, selection, insertion, merge, and quicksort.
- **Searching Algorithms**: Linear search and binary search.
- **Dynamic Programming**: Principles and common problems.

### Week 6: Mini-Projects and Real-World Applications
- **Project 1**: Build a personal library system using data structures.
- **Project 2**: Implement a simple web scraper.
- **Project 3**: Create a basic game using algorithms.

## Topics Covered
- Algorithms and Data Structures
- Beginner-Friendly Content
- Problem-Solving Patterns
- Practice Programming
- Real-World Applications
