There is no way that you can come up with this optimal solution in an interview. Although the better solution using merge procedure from merge sort was pretty thinkable and doable but this is a completely genius solution !!!

I came up with it on my own when solving it on Leetcode. Let’s be honest, the main idea is not very hard. But my problem was the actual implementation. You can see in the video just how many random +1 and -1 we need, as well as boundary checks. It’s crazy. I hoped Striver would find a way to make the code less ugly - sadly, no. The problem is just inherently very annoying

I came up with different approach on this one when solving on my own. It's similar to what we do in matrix's binary search I guess ( I have not watched striver's videos on it). Basically searching for kth element in any sorted arrays. It took O( log(m*n)*log(max-min)) time complexity, pretty big but it's in log and was accepted in leetcode.

@@easylearn8924 the idea is to do a binary search over the smaller-size array. while loop is written based on that and that's why using min(n1,n2) would give you error.

Watched both videos twice ,all 3 approaches are crystal clear now,thank you!

Waiting for this one for a long time no one explained this problem this well , Thank you.

Such a thorough explanation! Exactly what I needed to help me understand this problem. Great energy throughout and the lesson was clearly well prepared and organized to educate and enlighten. Thank you!

This is one of the bestest explanations I have come across. Totally cleared my concept. Thanks a lot sir !

Striver you are a real social reformer. At times when colleges are rendering students unemployable , you are making us industry ready. Dude Hats off to you.

After watching so many videos i actully the found the gem which resolved my all the doubts in such a nice and simple way.

Crystal clear explanation. Explained your heart out. Thank you :)

Understood! Super amazing explanation as always thank you very very much for your effort!!

Once again, your explanation is top-notch.

best video of entire playlist. I never understood this problem's binary search approach earlier, but you solved it so well. And that idea to call that function again if sizeof(b)

TOP notch explanation striver. I saw both videos. Understood completerly. Thank you.

What a energy ! Thank you striver for amazing content 🙇

Understood. GOod video striver. It's important to watch these important questions because it is not possible to invent these kind of solutions then and there itself.

brilliant explanation. even hard topics seem easy when you explain them.

You deeply understand the problem and explain the solution well. Thanks.

Brilliantly explained!!

brilliant explanation, this problem is not only hard to do but also hard to explain

Understood!! Amazing explanation

I wanna know, how you built your logic and how you became an expert in understanding this logic so well. I have been following your playlist for a couple of months and understood each problem so well. What steps do you follow in your initial stage to reach this point? Please help so that your valuable tips can help me crack coding interviews. Trust me you are simply Amazing and Genius :)

Amazing, how you observe so minutely :) Bhai Hat's Off .

UNDERSTOOD..........Thank You So Much for this wonderful video................🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I shocked at the end of video after seeing the way you explained this complex optimal solution!!!! Thanks a lot!❤‍🔥💥❤💯

Really wonderful approach and explanation

Thanks striver to explain this . I was thinking that this is too much difficult concept but after watching this video , I can do the similar stuff myself. Thank you so much

Great explaination..Thank you.💯

Excellent explanation!!💌

Amazing Explanation! Thanks!

Loved this approach❤

Hats off to you Broh... THANKS A MILLION 💙💙💙

At first the brain wasn't braining but got it at the end great explanation

I did it using the approach of two sorted lists question and got 2ms solution. But this is better

Wow explanations. Big Thanks to Striver.

Great explanation. Thank you ❤

Hi bro . Recently i started to watch your array playlist. Today i watching this median problem . I clearly understood your logic at first time itself . I really amazed with your logical thinking . How could you come up with this logic . You are making me logical thinking and programming more interesting. I am started to learn all the concept . Now i am following logic which is already there. But the way you are approaching all the problem with different optimal solution, its very unpredictable. Please provide some tips how you have build your logic on each ptogram when you started your coding journey. That would help most of the freshers. Thank you!

Thanks Bhai. Its a tough question, but explained it very nicely.

great explanation buddy. Keep up the good work.

Thank you Striver sir 🥰

great video, thanks for this

Thank you Striver💖💖

This is the first video that I have not understood of you. No matter how many times I watch I just can't understand. I'm just skipping this optimal approach for now. :)

1 morning i would woke up and see striver had completed a2z series and i got my dream company.

I still can't imagine how would someone think of such an optimal solution? It's out of mind. Are we expected to think of such optimal soln? I'm asking this bcz, it took me lot of time to understand this soln even after a great explanation... Thank you striver for such a wonderful explanation !

your explanation is awesome 😇😇. Finally i can rest in peace🙃
