About this product

Product Information

The updated new edition of the classic Introduction to Algorithms is intended primarily for use in undergraduate or graduate courses in algorithms or data structures. Like the first edition, this text can also be used for self-study by technical professionals since it discusses engineering issues in algorithm design as well as the mathematical aspects. In its new edition, Introduction to Algorithms continues to provide a comprehensive introduction to the modern study of algorithms. The revision has been updated to reflect changes in the years since the book's original publication. New chapters on the role of algorithms in computing and on probabilistic analysis and randomized algorithms have been included. Sections throughout the book have been rewritten for increased clarity, and material has been added wherever a fuller explanation has seemed useful or new information warrants expanded coverage. As in the classic first edition, this new edition of Introduction to Algorithms presents a rich variety of algorithms and covers them in considerable depth while making their design and analysis accessible to all levels of readers. Further, the algorithms are presented in pseudocode to make the book easily accessible to students from all programming language backgrounds. Each chapter presents an algorithm, a design technique, an application area, or a related topic. The chapters are not dependent on one another, so the instructor can organize his or her use of the book in the way that best suits the course's needs. Additionally, the new edition offers a 25% increase over the first edition in the number of problems, giving the book 155 problems and over 900 exercises that reinforcethe concepts the students are learning.

  • solid MATH book

    This book is excellent if it is used by it's "intended" audience for it's original purpose. Its intended audience seems to be people with a strong math background who want to understand algorithms enough to develop their own or read through all that technical literature on new algorithms. This book could give someone the foundation necessary to do that, and that's why it's excellent. On the other side of the coin, if you are looking for a practical, how-to type book, this isn't it. I recommend Algorithms for C++ or one of Sedgeweck's works. There is also some basic search and sort stuff on GameDev.net and Gamasutra.com, built for game developers, but having info useful for all. So, remember what i didn't know when i bought it: this is a GREAT ...
