Solved LeetCode 5: Longest Palindromic Substring with Two Pointers and DP

Day 7 of #100DaysOfLeetCode Problem: 5. Longest Palindromic Substring Category: Strings / Two Pointers / Dynamic Programming Today’s challenge was about finding the longest palindromic substring within a given string. This problem helped me improve my understanding of string traversal and palindrome validation using substring slicing. 🧠 Key Learnings: Iterated through all possible substrings to check for palindromes. Compared each substring with its reverse to find the longest one. Reinforced the concept of two-pointer expansion and string symmetry. Understood how optimizing brute-force logic can significantly reduce time complexity in future attempts. 🎯 Takeaway: Palindrome problems are all about symmetry — once you recognize that, expanding around centers or slicing becomes much more intuitive. #LeetCode #100DaysOfCode #ProblemSolving #CodingJourney #Strings #TwoPointers #Python #AIEngineer #Consistency
