Instructions

  • The questions will be featured from a pool of public problems from the GFG Practice Portal.
  • If you are a frequent user of our Practice Portal, you may have already solved the featured Problem of the Day in the past. In that case you must submit your solution again to maintain the streak and earn a Geek Bit.
  • Only the questions given by us each day will be considered valid for earning Geek Bits. Any record of your previous submissions or number of questions answered in the past will not be considered.
  • The questions will range across varying difficulties and DSA topics.
  • You can solve the questions in C++, Java, Python.
  • Each submission will be tested on our critical test data. Only a fully submitted solution will be considered for a Geek Bit.
  • Each question has hints that you may use when you are stuck on a problem. Marks are deducted on hints usage but your submission will still be considered for a Geek Bit.
  • You will not earn any GeekBit if you view the full solution or editorial before submitting the answer. This will also break your POTD streak.
  • The 24 hours allotted to complete the problem will be according to Indian Standard Time and start at midnight each day.
