The index is also thorough and very useful for finding specific problems." (William Fahle, ACM Computing Reviews, December, 2008)"For a decade, Steven Skiena’s Algorithm Design Manual retained its title as the best and most comprehensive practical algorithm guide to help identify and solve problems. … Would I recommend it? Absolutely. … If you want to use it as a course textbook then there are lots of exercises at the end of every chapter. … This second edition has updated the bibliography to include recent works, making it an extensive bibliography. It is a important book to have in your library. … The book’s unique structure makes it more likely to be immediately useful to the practitioner who has problem to solve and wants to quickly make progress … . Highly recommended.” (Mike James, I Programmer, September, 2009)"Addressing the main difficulties of
High hopes but a little disappointed BH I had high hopes for this book given the reviews here. I bought this book brush up on my existing knowledge and learn new things and was very excited to receive it. There are some interesting points and I liked that it has a section on heuristics. It introduced me to the idea of simulated annealing, which I am using for a problem at work now actually, but like most things in the book I had to turn to the internet for a better ex. "Fantastic reference" according to Steven D Lively. If you're interviewing for a programming position at Google, this is the book you want.Ask me how I know. :)This book has almost anything you ever wanted to know about data structures It's pretty easy to read with great explanations and fairly clear code. (Much clearer than any other programming book I've used.)This and Real Time Rendering (https://amazon.com/Real-Time-Rendering-Third-Tomas-Akenine-Moller/dp/156881Fantastic reference Steven D Lively If you're interviewing for a programming position at Google, this is the book you want.Ask me how I know. :)This book has almost anything you ever wanted to know about data structures It's pretty easy to read with great explanations and fairly clear code.

"It's not a great one to start off with" according to Ron V. It's not a great one to start off with, especially if you never did an algorithms class in college. I'd say it's a decent second book, as it has enough complexity, but it has a somewhat readable style. You can tell the author really tried to make the material approachable, but it's nowhere near as beginner friendly as the amazing book "Grokking Algorithms", that one is a true beginners book. This is a decent second one.
• Resources – Good algorithm designers stand on the shoulders of giants. Rather than re-implementing popular algorithms from scratch, they seek existing implementations to serve as a starting point. They are familiar with many classic algorithmic problems, which provide sufficient source material to model most any application. This book is intended as a manual on algorithm design, providing access to combinatorial algorithm technology for both students and computer professionals.. Most professional programmers that I’ve encountered are not well prepared to tackle algorithm design problems. This is a pity, because the techniques of algorithm design form one of the core practical technologies of computer science. Designing correct, efficient, and implementable algorithms for real-world problems requires access to two distinct bodies of knowledge: • Techniques – Good algorithm designers understand several fundamental algorithm design techniques, including data structures, dynamic programming, depth first search, backtracking, and heuristics. Perhaps the single most important design technique is modeling, the art of abstracting a messy real-world application into a clean problem suitable for algorithmic attack. Rather than laboring from scratch to produce a new algorithm for every task, they can figure out what is known about a particular problem
Steven Skiena is Professor of Computer Science at Stony Brook University. He is the author of four books, including "The Algorithm Design Manual" and "Calculated Bets: Computers, Gambling, and Mathematical Modeling to Win". He is recipient of the ONR Young Investigator Award and the IEEE Computer Science and Engineering Undergraduate Teaching Award.. His research interests include the design of graph, string, and geometric algorithms, and their applications (particularly to biology)
