JavaScript Programación competitiva
//If you’re not familiar with competitive programming, basically it is a mind sport with the aim of writing code to solve given problems. I was introduced to it in my freshman year by my seniors. As of this writing, I’m still not really great at it! Maybe it is due to the fact that I don’t like to code in C++, or maybe I am a lazy person who won’t take the time to actually learn it well enough. But, I like algorithms and data-structures as much as I like JavaScript!
//So, the preposterous thought crossed my mind over and over again. ‘What if we start using JavaScript in the competitive arena?’ Turns out, this doesn’t seem like the uncharted territory that I thought it would be. Many platforms like HackerRank, CodeChef, and Codeforces support JavaScript.
//I know C++ is a lot faster compared to JavaScript and can dynamically allocate memory. C and C++ are quite similar in terms of performance, but competitive programmers mostly use C++ because of its Standard Template Library (or STL). It provides common programming data structures like list, stack, array along with container classes, algorithms, and iterators out of the box.
//But, JavaScript offers something C++ lacks:
//Freedom!
