Guided hints that teach, not spoil

Progressive hints unlock as you think through the problem. Each one nudges your thinking forward without giving away the solution.

Coin Change
MediumLeetCode

Given coins of denominations coins and a target amount, return the fewest number of coins needed to make up that amount. Return -1 if the amount cannot be made.

Hint 1observation

Think about building the answer from smaller subproblems. If you already knew the minimum coins for every amount less than your target, how would that help you answer the original question?

Hint 2direction

Define dp[i] as the minimum coins needed for amount i. For each amount, try subtracting every coin — you're left with a subproblem you've already solved. Take the best option.

Hint 3locked

Instant feedback on your code

After you've worked through hints, get AI-powered analysis of your solution. Learn what works, what doesn't, and how to improve.

Python
def coinChange(coins, amount):
  dp = [float('inf')] * (amount + 1)
  dp[0] = 0
  for i in range(1, amount + 1):
    for coin in coins:
      if coin <= i:
        dp[i] = min(dp[i], dp[i - coin] + 1)
  return dp[amount] if dp[amount] != float('inf') else -1
Complexity

O(n × m) time, O(n) space — n is amount, m is coins. Standard bottom-up DP, optimal for this approach.

Strengths

Clean DP formulation, handles the impossible case correctly, follows the standard bottom-up pattern.

Consider

Inner loop could break early once dp[i] = 1. Minor optimization — solution is correct and idiomatic.

Everything built for learning

Practice smarter, improve faster.

Guided Hints

Three progressive hints per problem. Works for interview prep and competitive programming — nudges your thinking without spoiling the solution.
