I have good grip on cpp and has been using the same past 6 years for coding questions.
Have solved nearly 270+ on leetcode using the same. Recently i have started interviewing and at few companies i was asked to code in Java. I know for Java concepts but have never used for ds/algo.
Should i now switch to java?If you have faced similar situation please comment the different approach you guys tied.

Although I do think it’s useful to know python for interviews precisely because it makes some things really simple. You typically don’t waste time with mechanical work, and focus on showing the interviewer that you can solve the problem.
For real world use, Java is definitely better - performance vs cpp doesn’t matter too much for data oriented systems.
