Summary
This internationally acclaimed textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to the modern study of computer algorithms。 It covers a broad range of algorithms in depth， yet makes their design and analysis accessible to all levels of reade Each chapter is relatively self-contained and presents an algorithm， a design technique， an application area， or a related topic。 The algorithms are described and designed in a manner to be readable by anyone who has done a little programming。 The explanations have been kept elementary without sacrificing depth of coverage or mathematical rigor。 The third edition has been revised and updated throughout。 It includes two completely new chapters， on van Emde Boas trees and multithreaded algorithms， and substantial additions to the chapter on recurrences （now called Divide-and-Conquer ）。 It features improved treatment of dynamic programming and greedy algorithms and a new notion of edge-based flow in the material on flow networks。 Many new exercises and problems have been added in this edition。 The text is intended primarily for students studying algorithms or data structures。 As it discusses engineering issues in algorithm design， as well as mathematical aspects， it is equally well suited for self-study by technical professionals。

The book from a content point of view is great for starting out 。 however the readability and layout are horrific 。 still worth the read but it probabby will take you x4 the effort of reading any other technical book 。

One of the best books （under computer science engineering） I have read。 Algorithms and the associated paradigms are explained by providing intuition behind them and the corresponding mathematical proofs。The mathematical skills I picked up from this book helped in proving the efficiency of solutions I devised as part of my work as a programmer。However， I feel that the chapters associated with graphs could have been expanded to illustrate various types of problems that could be solved by applicati One of the best books （under computer science engineering） I have read。 Algorithms and the associated paradigms are explained by providing intuition behind them and the corresponding mathematical proofs。The mathematical skills I picked up from this book helped in proving the efficiency of solutions I devised as part of my work as a programmer。However， I feel that the chapters associated with graphs could have been expanded to illustrate various types of problems that could be solved by application of standard graph algorithms。PS: My review is limited to the chapters that I have read from the book i。e。 Chapters 1 to 24 and appendices A to D。 。。。more

If your major is related to computer science on any level， you can not skip this book。 It really changes your understanding on the concept after reading it。 Though it's a tough book to read and there's a lot of stuff into it， but once you get through it， it will change your life as an engineer。 If your major is related to computer science on any level， you can not skip this book。 It really changes your understanding on the concept after reading it。 Though it's a tough book to read and there's a lot of stuff into it， but once you get through it， it will change your life as an engineer。 。。。more

Solid didactical material with plenty of math and exercises， but not at all a page-turner outside of the classroom。 Algorithms can be more compelling。

I had to "read" this for my Algorithms and Data Structures exam。 I use quotes because I did not read the whole book， it is so dense that it would take far longer than the time I had for the course。I have to say some of the images and diagrams are pretty good and helped my understanding but equally some bits were very cryptic until I found some clearer explanations online。One very good thing about this book is that this is the book for studying algorithms and data structures and it is so widely u I had to "read" this for my Algorithms and Data Structures exam。 I use quotes because I did not read the whole book， it is so dense that it would take far longer than the time I had for the course。I have to say some of the images and diagrams are pretty good and helped my understanding but equally some bits were very cryptic until I found some clearer explanations online。One very good thing about this book is that this is the book for studying algorithms and data structures and it is so widely used that there are a lot of resources online that will provide explanations and solutions to the exercises。I will keep it for future reference but， again， there are plenty of resources out there that might give you a more immediate understanding of some of the topics， especially if we're talking about visually seeing some algorithms。 。。。more

This is mostly a 4-stars book because some chapters need more explanations。 But the solution website helps a lot in understanding the material so I give it 5 stars。

Being taught in every Algorithm's course at every Computer Science university， I'd say this book has capacity to overwhelm average minds with bogus concepts and too much mathematical modelling。 I consulted this book for mathematical concepts only。 If you want to sharpen up your Algorithm concepts， I'd recommend you not to spend much time reading it。 Being taught in every Algorithm's course at every Computer Science university， I'd say this book has capacity to overwhelm average minds with bogus concepts and too much mathematical modelling。 I consulted this book for mathematical concepts only。 If you want to sharpen up your Algorithm concepts， I'd recommend you not to spend much time reading it。 。。。more

There are too many advanced mathmatic concepts so it's a little bit difficult for me to fully understand it now。 There are too many advanced mathmatic concepts so it's a little bit difficult for me to fully understand it now。 。。。more

Every computer scientist should be aware of this book。 It can be either read （while doing the exercises， of course） from beginning to end， or can be used as a reference book。 The topics addressed in the book are well chosen and well described， having both real life usage and the ability to develop the reader's algorithmic thinking。 Every computer scientist should be aware of this book。 It can be either read （while doing the exercises， of course） from beginning to end， or can be used as a reference book。 The topics addressed in the book are well chosen and well described， having both real life usage and the ability to develop the reader's algorithmic thinking。 。。。more

I am never able to 'finish reading' this book。 This is a go-to reference on basic algorithms。 I find myself coming to this book occasionally and often to check the details of some of the general purpose algorithms used in the industry。 This is 'the book' on algorithms also followed in almost all major universities and institutions across India and abroad。This is a must-have book for any programmer。 I am never able to 'finish reading' this book。 This is a go-to reference on basic algorithms。 I find myself coming to this book occasionally and often to check the details of some of the general purpose algorithms used in the industry。 This is 'the book' on algorithms also followed in almost all major universities and institutions across India and abroad。This is a must-have book for any programmer。 。。。more

Contains a lot of great references but it is horrible as an introduction piece。 This is given to CS students and used to learn about algorithms。 This is bloody horrible。 It presents the algorithms in a language that makes a lot of sense for seasoned mathematicians but for entry level developer i personally didn't like it。 It's great as a reference sheet， but for much more i don't recommend it。 Contains a lot of great references but it is horrible as an introduction piece。 This is given to CS students and used to learn about algorithms。 This is bloody horrible。 It presents the algorithms in a language that makes a lot of sense for seasoned mathematicians but for entry level developer i personally didn't like it。 It's great as a reference sheet， but for much more i don't recommend it。 。。。more

Найкраща книга по алгоритмах， яку я читав。 Отримав я її вже маючи за плечима університетський курс і пару схожих книг （прочитаних повністю чи розділами）。 Кожен розділ набудовує свої твердження із дуже базових понять， тому раджу навіть школярам （із знаннями будь-якої мови програмування）。 Покриває усі розділи， необхідні як для старту в спортивному програмуванні， так і для серйозних співбесід。 Окремо хочу виділити， що дуже сподобався підхід до оцінки алгоритмів із доведенням супутніх теорем і поясн Найкраща книга по алгоритмах， яку я читав。 Отримав я її вже маючи за плечима університетський курс і пару схожих книг （прочитаних повністю чи розділами）。 Кожен розділ набудовує свої твердження із дуже базових понять， тому раджу навіть школярам （із знаннями будь-якої мови програмування）。 Покриває усі розділи， необхідні як для старту в спортивному програмуванні， так і для серйозних співбесід。 Окремо хочу виділити， що дуже сподобався підхід до оцінки алгоритмів із доведенням супутніх теорем і поясненням， чому це працює。 Методи поясненнь， використані в книзі змусили （мінімум мене） змінити свій підхід до вирішення будь-яких алгоритмічних задач， що є найціннішим надбанням від книги。 Раджу。 。。。more

I looked at the number of algorithms and data structure books before， but this one was simply mind blowing。 It took me about 3 months to read it through and absorb， i had to re-read many parts because it was impossible to grasp from the first pass。 Well， this one explains so many things that are within technology and usually people do not even know about it。 I can now write my own STL for any programming language， i grasp the elegant beauty of RSA and know how to optimize things in my own work。 I looked at the number of algorithms and data structure books before， but this one was simply mind blowing。 It took me about 3 months to read it through and absorb， i had to re-read many parts because it was impossible to grasp from the first pass。 Well， this one explains so many things that are within technology and usually people do not even know about it。 I can now write my own STL for any programming language， i grasp the elegant beauty of RSA and know how to optimize things in my own work。 I would say this one a must read， but i guess it will mainly work for science geeks。 But give it a try。P。S。 Saw a lot people complain that the book does not deliver。 Don't trust them - they are the type that can only comprehend Python video courses on data structures。 Well， the book is not easy to digest， but i think it is written in a very concise manner and is very solid。 Just keep going to the end and try to program it all as well。 It may be a good idea to read "Grokking algorithms" book before this one to get mentally prepared and wired for real stuff。 。。。more

This book was material book for my data structures & algorithms course， and i have to say the word "introduction" does not really fit the contents of this book， especially for a 2nd year cs student。 Perhaps people with more experience will find this an easier read， as i could not finish it in under 2 months。 This book was material book for my data structures & algorithms course， and i have to say the word "introduction" does not really fit the contents of this book， especially for a 2nd year cs student。 Perhaps people with more experience will find this an easier read， as i could not finish it in under 2 months。 。。。more

Cormen et al did an absolute masterpiece writing this book。 This is a staple for our university Data Structures and Algorithms course。 The topics are explained very clearly。 The exercises are rich too。 An absolute delight reading the book。

A must read for every CS student in my opinion。 It's also a great reference to get back to in the future。 It covers most of the major algorithms， I loved the way the book is written， easy to understand and it walks you through the topics in a lovely way。 This isn't a book to read while laying down or between tasks， it needs its time， you need to sit down concentrate and read it to understand what it has to offer， otherwise it will be a waste of time。 I used this book to pass my algorithms exam， A must read for every CS student in my opinion。 It's also a great reference to get back to in the future。 It covers most of the major algorithms， I loved the way the book is written， easy to understand and it walks you through the topics in a lovely way。 This isn't a book to read while laying down or between tasks， it needs its time， you need to sit down concentrate and read it to understand what it has to offer， otherwise it will be a waste of time。 I used this book to pass my algorithms exam， it worked as a wonderful summary for what I learned during the course， I will come and read the chapter about the wanted algorithm after I have read and learned the lecturer presentations， so I came to the book with some knowledge about the topic and used it （the book） to help me better understand/correct certain concepts about the topics。 The exercises after each chapter are key。 There are solutions for the question in the book you can google that。 Some chapters I haven't read since I took them in earlier courses。 So I didn't read the book completely， but I did cover the majority of it。Cheers。 。。。more

Книжка для студіків прикладної。 Непрактична зовсім。 Половина тексту теореми леми і доведення які в реальному житті нікому не треба。Переклад просто жесть。 Купа слів які ніхто не вживає і хз шо означають。 Геш， дядько （в деревах） і тд。 Нафіга той псевдокод？ Тим більше він суміш укр і англ - color == червоний， return хиба。 Неможливо читати взагалі。

A tough but necessary read--the best I've found on algorithms。 It's a math book， and only kind of a CS book which is the right way to do it。 Quirks of languages and implementations change and are too varied to incorporate into this study， so it's the right choice to abstract them out。 It hits the big topics， or maybe by being the algorithms bible it has set what the big topics are。The explanations can be hard and you really need to understand combinatorics， graph theory， and probability well in A tough but necessary read--the best I've found on algorithms。 It's a math book， and only kind of a CS book which is the right way to do it。 Quirks of languages and implementations change and are too varied to incorporate into this study， so it's the right choice to abstract them out。 It hits the big topics， or maybe by being the algorithms bible it has set what the big topics are。The explanations can be hard and you really need to understand combinatorics， graph theory， and probability well in order to follow many of them。 Even studying a significant amount of real analysis becomes important before approaching later chapters。 Mathematical as it is， you'll also want to have some way of implementing these algorithms in your favorite language。 The exercises in the book are not great for that。 Just about every language has a book on algorithms implemented in that language， so a good plan is to supplement this book with the exercises from one of those。 。。。more
