Includes hints of solutions to all quizzes and problems, and a series of YouTube videos by the author accompanies the book.
Algorithms Illuminated: Graph algorithms and data structures. Part 2
Introduces exciting new methods for assessing algorithms for problems ranging from clustering to linear programming to neural networks.
This book is Part I of the fourth edition of Robert Sedgewick and Kevin Wayne’s Algorithms , the leading textbook on algorithms today, widely used in colleges and universities worldwide. Part I contains Chapters 1 through 3 of the book.
He stresses paradigms such as loop invariants and recursion to unify a huge range of algorithms into a few meta-algorithms. The book fosters a deeper understanding of how and why each algorithm works.
