Hello friends!
I hope you had a great week! I was off traveling teaching for work, and I'm glad to be home and back to
making memes.

Something that interested me this week
This past week I got myself a tablet! I originally started thinking about getting one so that I could have my notes readily available while teaching workshops, but now I'm using it for practicing drawing, too! I found some online classes that I've been enjoying so far, and have really liked getting to be creative with it. If anyone reading has recommendations for drawing practice, I'd love to hear them!
Interview question of the week
Last week, I had you count sequences.
Sophie,
Dimitris,
Leslie,
Matthew,
George, and
Kyle did a great job answering!
This week's question:
Given an array of n integers, find the length of the longest increasing subsequence.
Example:
> subLength(13, 35, 1, 5, 40, 86)
> 4 // The sequence here would be 1, 5, 40, 86
Sponsor
Whoa, a new section! I'm super excited to say that I've partnered with
