## Title: DSA Must-Know Algorithms for FAANG Interviews (No Nonsense Guide)

### Introduction (0:00 - 1:30)

(Upbeat music) "Ever felt like DSA is this mystical land where algorithms roam free, terrorizing
interviewees? Well, fear not! Today, we're decoding the must-know algorithms for your FAANG-level
coding interviews. No jargon, no boring theory - just pure problem-solving goodness!"
Quick intro: "Hi, I'm [Your Name] and welcome to BitForByte! If you're ready to crack those coding
interviews like a pro, stick around."
CTA: "Subscribe, hit that like button, and let's jump right into it."

### 1. Sorting Algorithms (1:30 - 3:30)


"Sorting algorithms are like the Marie Kondo of coding - they bring order to chaos."
Focus on:
- Merge Sort - Efficient and reliable.
- Quick Sort - The rebel with a cause.
- Heap Sort - Great for priority-based problems.
Visual comparison using animations.
Example: "Why FAANG loves sorting? Think of ranking billions of search results on Google."

---

### 2. Searching Algorithms (3:30 - 5:00)


"Searching in an unsorted array is like finding a sock in a laundry pile. Not fun."
Discuss:
- Binary Search - Best when data is sorted.
- Breadth-First Search (BFS) and Depth-First Search (DFS) for graphs.
Real-life analogy: "Imagine Google Maps finding the shortest route - that's BFS in action!"

---
### 3. Dynamic Programming (5:00 - 7:30)
"If algorithms were superheroes, DP would be Doctor Strange - solving complex problems by
remembering the past."
Key problems:
- Fibonacci numbers
- Knapsack problem
- Longest Common Subsequence
"Think of it like saving game progress so you don't have to fight the boss again."

---

### 4. Greedy Algorithms (7:30 - 9:00)


"Greedy algorithms are like choosing pizza toppings - sometimes the obvious choice is the best!"
Cover:
- Activity Selection Problem
- Huffman Encoding
Explain when greedy works and when it fails.

---

### 5. Graph Algorithms (9:00 - 11:00)


"Graphs are just data playing a game of connect the dots."
Discuss:
- Dijkstra's Algorithm
- Kruskal's and Prim's for MST
- Bellman-Ford for negative cycles
Visual animation of shortest path.

---

### 6. Bonus: Backtracking (11:00 - 12:00)


"Backtracking is like a GPS with regrets - it backtracks when it hits a dead end."
Examples:
- N-Queens Problem
- Sudoku Solver
Quick Tip: "Always visualize the state space tree."

---

### Conclusion (12:00 - 13:00)


"Master these algorithms and you'll be FAANG interview-ready faster than a bubble sort on a tiny
array!"
CTA: "Comment below with your favorite algorithm or the one that haunts your dreams! Don't forget
to like, share, and subscribe."

### Outro (13:00 - 13:30)


Closing screen with links to other videos.
Light music fade-out.
"Remember, bit by bit, we code our way to the top. See you next time on BitForByte!"
