Product description

This expanded and updated second edition of a classic bestseller continues to take the "mystery" out of designing and analyzing algorithms and their efficacy and efficiency. Expanding on the highly successful formula of the first edition, the book now serves as the primary textbook of choice for any algorithm design course while maintaining its status as the premier practical reference guide to algorithms. NEW: (1) Incorporates twice the tutorial material and exercises. (2) Provides full online support for lecturers, and a completely updated and improved website component with lecture slides, audio and video. (3) Contains a highly unique catalog of the 75 most important algorithmic problems. (4) Includes new "war stories" and "interview problems", relating experiences from real-world applications. Written by a well-known, IEEE Computer Science teaching-award winner, this new edition is an essential learning tool for students needing a solid grounding in algorithms, as well as a uniquely comprehensive text/reference for professionals.

Skiena is absolute ace. Explanations are accurate and to-the-point, coverage of topics is amazingly broad without being overwhelming, there are plenty of solved examples, and the exercises are very good. The book may not be for the beginners though, but would be an excellent second book. The best part is that the second half of the book is devoted entirely to a catalog of problems one is likely to encounter in practice - and very detailed discussions of approaches to solve them. This alone makes this book immensely valuable (besides making it much more practical and applied than any other algorithms book on the market).

Be sure however to implement the algorithms though, otherwise you will not see your skills improve. Especially use it in conjunction with TopCoder, CodeChef etc. and see your skills skyrocket.

I know for a fact that this book is rated very highly at places like Google, so if you can work through this book well, you might very well be on your way to such places. Good luck !

Awesome book for people who are tired of going through the big, fat Cormen. Good shopping experience with Amazon as well.

I will make this review simple, and to the point. This book talks about the algorithms from their application point of view. There is not much maths here, but that is fine because that is in keeping with the general approach. Although it does touch upon a few maths topics like Big-oh and complexity, as they are inevitable when dealing with the subject matter, it is only cursory and quickly goes back to the engineering side of the things. There are many real world examples which, along with the catalog of problems and solutions, give the book an engineer's perspective.

I have Knuth, CLRS and Sedgewick. The books are in descending order in mathematical rigor and approach, and ascending order in engineering techniques. I know the latter ordering is debatable but IMO that's the order. This book comes fourth in that list and fits the ordering nicely.
