📘 LeetCode Python Practice

This repository is a personal coding log and growth tracker by a Data Science student actively preparing for:

• Placement interviews
• Summer internships
• Tech internships (2025 and beyond)

Beyond career goals, this repo represents a journey of continuous improvement — aiming to become fluent in Python, improve logic and algorithmic thinking, and ultimately become confident enough to solve problems without external help.

🧭 Why This Repo Exists

I'm not just solving problems — I'm tracking growth.

I want to:

• Think like a programmer
• Debug like a problem-solver
• Build confidence for freelancing and job interviews
• Inspire others to do the same by showing consistent daily effort

Follow my journey. I’m excited to see how far I can grow.
