Skill Set For Competitive Programming

This document contains a self-assessment of the user's skills in various data structures, algorithms, and programming topics. It includes a scoring table for rating their level of knowledge on each topic from 1 to 5. There is then a list of over 90 keywords related to these topics, and the user has provided a subjective score from 1 to 5 for each, which is plotted on a graph. This allows the user to visualize their current skill set and identify areas to improve.
