Insertion at beginning

Insertion at beginning (cdll) is a DSA idea you prove with Arun walking through Insertion at beginning cdll, not with a slogan.

Keep Insertion at beginning (cdll) small. Arun should finish Arun walking through Insertion at beginning cdll in a few lines, not a 40-line dump.

Insertion at beginning (cdll) exists so Arun can keep Arun walking through Insertion at beginning cdll correct in a viva board.

Arun ships Insertion at beginning (cdll) in a viva board. That is the use case worth saying.

If Arun walking through Insertion at beginning cdll breaks under Insertion at beginning (cdll), check copy-pasting Insertion at beginning cdll without a dry-run first.

After Insertion at beginning (cdll), Arun should still remember copy-pasting Insertion at beginning cdll without a dry-run.

Viva for Insertion at beginning (cdll): what it is → one Insertion at beginning cdll step Arun can write from memory → the mistake (copy-pasting Insertion at beginning cdll without a dry-run).

Exam tip

Board: Arun walking through Insertion at beginning cdll. Dry-run Insertion at beginning (cdll). Name the trap: copy-pasting Insertion at beginning cdll without a dry-run.

Example

# Insertion at beginning
data = [4, 1, 3]
print("start", data)
if data[0] > data[1]:
    data[0], data[1] = data[1], data[0]
print("after one step", data)

Insertion at beginning (cdll) — Dry-run [4, 1, 3]. Say the list after one step.

Short notes

DefInsertion at beginning (cdll) — Arun uses it for Arun walking through Insertion at beginning cdll in a viva board.
