Title: The Art of Computer Programming, Volume 2 By: Donald E. Knuth Format: eBook, 784 pages ISBN: 0-201-89684-2 | 978-0-201-89684-8 Edition: Third (3rd) Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional The Art of Computer Programming, Volume 2 Seminumerical Algorithms Overview Volume 2 of Donald Knuth’s classic series The Art of Computer Programmingcovers seminumerical algorithms, with topics ranging from random number generators to [...]
This first volume in the series begins with basic programming concepts and techniques, then focuses more particularly on information structures—the representation of information inside a computer, the structural relationships between data elements and how to deal with them efficiently. Elementary applications are given to simulation, numerical methods, symbolic computing, software and system design. Dozens of simple and important algorithms and techniques have been added to those of the previous edition. The section on mathematical preliminaries has been extensively revised to match present trends in research.
Some books on algorithms are rigorous but incomplete; others cover masses of material but lack rigor. Introduction to Algorithms uniquely combines rigor and comprehensiveness. The book covers a broad range of algorithms in depth, yet makes their design and analysis accessible to all levels of readers. Each chapter is relatively self-contained and can be used as a unit of study. The algorithms are described in English and in a pseudocode designed 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.
