Stuck on a Challenge?

Look for the solution only after you have at least spent 30 minutes on that particular challenge.

• Make notes of every methodology and tips/tricks you learned or came across

• Don't look and follow the solution straightaway, instead after being stuck, look/read the solution then try again don't copy paste the solution.

• Cheating and getting the right answer will only hurt you and no one else.
