Four Sum
Find all unique quadruplets in an array that sum to a given target.
Longest Repeating Character Replacement
Given a string and an integer k, return the length of the longest substring that can be made of identical characters after at most k replacements.
Count Nice Subarrays
Count subarrays that contain exactly k odd numbers.
Prepend a new head
Insert value at the front of the list.
Append a new tail
Add value after the last node.
Palindrome linked values
Check whether values read the same forwards and backwards.
Rotate list left by k
Move the first k nodes to the end (k may exceed length; use modulo).
Merge two sorted lists
Merge two ascending integer lists into one sorted list.
Remove duplicate values
Keep first occurrence of each value while preserving order.
Pairwise sum of adjacent nodes
Sum each adjacent pair; keep a lone last node as-is.
Count nodes equal to target
Count how many times target appears in the list.
Zip two linked lists
Interleave values from a and b until both are exhausted.
Split list at index
Return prefix and suffix tuples at index k.

Practice Python by solving problems
PythonSkillset challenges are hands-on coding exercises from beginner to advanced. Open a challenge, read the problem, write Python in the split-pane editor, and run tests with Pyodide — no install required.
How to use the arena
- Pick a category — basics, algorithms, strings, and more
- Open a challenge, read the statement, and edit the starter code
- Run tests, fix failures, then try a related quiz or tutorial lesson
Challenges vs tutorials and quizzes
Challenges test what you can build under constraints. For guided teaching, use our Python tutorials. For quick checks, try quizzes or copy snippets from code samples.
