By reducing solution, I mean taking some solution which is hard to code and turning it into something which is easier to code, or at least harder to mess up? I'm pretty good when it comes to getting hard ideas, but when the problem is easy but has cancer implementation/debugging if not well thought out before coding, I often end up idea solving a long time before getting ac. I've also noticed on OAs the problems that take me the most time are the implementation ones no matter how easy the idea is maybe 5-10x the time of idea problems, and on some OAs I've bombed just because I couldn't find a bug or something. Any of you guys have any problem lists that would help and/or advice on doing this type of thing better?
