Creating robust software requires the use of efficient algorithms, but programmers seldom think about them until a problem occurs. This updated edition of a book that figures among our popular reviews describes a large number of existing algorithms for solving a variety of problems, and helps you select and implement the right algorithm for your needs with just enough math to let you understand and analyze algorithm performance. <ASIN:1491948922> With its focus on application, rather than theory, this book provides efficient code solutions in several programming languages that you can easily adapt to a specific project. Each major algorithm is presented in the style of a design pattern that includes information to help you understand why and when the algorithm is appropriate. Giving the original edition a rating of 5, Mike James wrote: This book is a “keeper” - make room for it on your bookshelf as it’s essential reading. Author: George Heineman, Gary Pollice, Stanley Selkow
