How To Solve Algorithms - Longest Common Prefix

Algorithms are difficult to understand, but absolutely crucial for landing a job. In this video I will be explaining the longest common prefix algorithm in depth. I will cover both of the most common approaches to the algorithm and comparing them.

I will walk through animated examples of the algorithm to explain the reasoning behind why the different approaches work, and then at the end of the video I will program the algorithm using JavaScript using the most optimal solution.
