SDE's Ego Crushed By LeetCode | 51. N-Queens

This video documents one of the toughest experiences in my programming journey: attempting to solve the N-Queens problem on LeetCode.

Problem Description:
The N-Queens problem is a classic algorithm challenge that requires placing N queens on an NxN chessboard such that no two queens threaten each other. It demands a deep understanding of backtracking, recursion, and data structures—areas where I found myself completely out of my depth.

I not only struggled to design the algorithm but also felt lost with the data structures involved. This challenge made me question my programming skills, and by the end, I was overwhelmed and disappointed.

While this experience was discouraging, I’m sharing it to highlight the reality of learning and growth. Programming isn’t always easy, and failure is part of the process. If you've ever felt defeated by a problem, you're not alone. Let's embrace the struggle and keep improving.
