Algorithms Algorithms
I read this book recently as i wanted to refresh some c++ basics and im not sure if i liked it soo much.
Its a good book, examples are good, coding structures and language concepts are very good. I especially liked pointers chapter.
What i was not so found of was recursion chapter and stack managment. I also did not like design patterns chapter nor uml (there was almost none).
It describes well memory data structures like lists, trees etc.
Introduction to algorithms is an amazing and very comprehensive guide to programming algorithms, analysis, estimation and data structures.
I read most of it in college but i still keep it on my shelf and have a look from time to time.
Its a classic book and you really should have it if you are serious about development. You will probably never implement most of the algorithms described there but understanding them will make a big difference.
During university years i had an opportunity to work on some cool stuff. Some low level hardcore coding in c and some nice java stuff :- ) Any way its a great memory, thinking of all the sleepless nights and excitement when stuff actually starts to work :- ) if you enjoy any of the ideas let me know.
