This is Richard’s Newsletter, a newsletter about Algorithms Explained To A Five Year Old.

Last year, I had an interview with Goldman Sachs. In that interview, I was asked to explain what hash tables were as if I was explaining it to a five(5) year old. That I did! Prior to this experience, my friend Rodney always said I had a vivid way of explaining concepts with practical examples, I like to think that I do too. My roommate who just started learning to code said the same thing.

With this newsletter, I will be exploring data structures, algorithms, topics, and computer science concepts every week. I will then explain these to you as if you were a five year old. When you subscribe to the monthly or yearly plan, you also get the chance to suggest a topic for me to explore in future newsletters.

Can’t wait to get started. Subscribe.
