Today I went deeper into encapsulation and built a small project to understand it better. Learned about the this keyword, why we use it, and how getter & setter methods work. Also started a new concept — constructors. DSA: Didn’t learn anything new today, but participated in a biweekly contest. Solved 1 easy and 2 medium questions. Progress is not perfect, but I’m improving step by step.
Today I learned about methods and method overloading in Java. Also started one of the most important OOP concepts — encapsulation. Really enjoyed understanding how we can hide and protect data. DSA: Did revision and solved one medium-level problem. The past 5 days didn’t go exactly as planned, but I’m still showing up and trying to stay consistent. Day 06 done.
Today I learned OOP fundamentals — what a class is, what an object is, instance variables, and local variables. Also created a repository where I’ll push my daily learning progress. DSA: Solved 1 recursion problem. Additionally, I made an exam sheet to revise all my LeetCode questions for the month of May. Trying to bring more structure into my journey step by step. Day 05 done.
Today I completed Git — now I understand the basics pretty well and feel more confident using it. DSA: Learned Quick Sort — how recursion helps place elements at their correct position. It took some time to properly dry run and understand, but it was actually fun. Also solved 2–3 medium-level problems. One challenge I’m facing right now is revision — figuring out how to revise everything effectively. But I’ll find a way soon and make my journey more structured. Still no big goals — just showing up every day. Day 04 done.
