LFU Cache Implementation in O(1) - Advanced Data Structures Explained

Learn how to implement a Least Frequently Used (LFU) Cache with O(1) time complexity! 🚀

In this video, we break down one of the most challenging coding interview problems. We'll move beyond the basic LRU cache and explore how to track item popularity efficiently using a combination of Hash Maps and Doubly Linked Lists.

We will cover:
1. The difference between LRU and LFU caching policies.
2. Why naive implementations fail at scale.
3. The specific data structures required for constant time operations.
4. A step-by-step visual walkthrough of the GET and PUT algorithms.

Whether you are preparing for system design interviews or just love algorithm optimization, this guide is for you! 🧠
