Problems listed by students while learning Data Structures and Algorithms

DS & Algo learning issues

In a comment, put down the problems you face while learning Data Structures and Algorithms. As far as I know, there's enough content on Internet. There are thousands of books around this topic as this is the major way you get a job.

Still, I see students complaining about it. So, tell me what is stopping you?

Be honest if you're just being lazy around putting an honest effort.

Edit:

I have written two pieces about the DSA issues. Have a look. It might help

I would also go for the 1st option as that sir was saying indefinite goal...because as far as I am having understanding everyone can learn any language because its just a way or a structure to write the program but whatever we program it needs a algorithem, so tanay sir if you can your example like where you have started learning data structure and algorithms and where do you think its proper way where we can learn those thing in a very simplistic way.

Sir the major problem with me is that I start the course and stop learning after two three days. I can not focus on these subjects for so long. That's the main problem with me

I used to practise ds and algo in python, but later my senior told me to switch to c++ or java.I have a basic understanding of java now as i am learning js, i don't know in which language should I fix now for ds and algo practise( js/python/java/c++).

Main issue while learning data structures and algorithms is that, i could understand algorithm but problem comes with its implementation.
While developing something we know our goal but here in data structures and some algorithms like Sorting algorithms i find everything becoming puzzled up.

Hi Tanay ,Could you please help to guide about whether which language is suitable to learn DS & Algo for FrontEnd developers as majorly courses are in Java/C++?

@shrutisugandhi I have put some more links in the main text. Have a look.
