What are the tips and tricks for writing efficient code?

Example answer

  • Keep it simple: Use simple algorithms and data structures, and strive to reduce the number of lines of code.
  • Write modular code: Break your code into small functions that can be reused in different parts of the code.
  • Measure performance: Monitor your code’s performance using a profiler and identify areas for improvement.
  • Optimize memory usage: Utilize memory efficiently by using data structures that require less memory.
  • Cache information: Cache frequently used information for faster access instead of repeatedly recomputing them.
  • Avoid duplicate computations: Identify and eliminate redundant computations in your code.
  • Use appropriate data types: Use data types which are most suitable for the task at hand.
