Feedback

The difficulty rating seems off for some problems

Some problems marked as "Medium" feel harder than certain "Hard" problems. For example:

  • "Word Break" (marked Medium) - I find this harder than some hard DP problems
  • "Remove K Digits" (marked Medium) - This is definitely hard difficulty

Is the difficulty based on LeetCode's rating or independently assessed? Maybe we could have a community vote system for difficulty?

Totally agree with you, some of those 'Medium' problems are a real pain! I think part of the issue is personal experience and what you're comfortable with. Like, I suck at dynamic programming, so those always feel harder to me no matter the label.
