Summary This expanded and updated second edition of a classic bestseller continues to take the mystery out of designing and analyzing algorithms and their efficacy and efficiency. Expanding on the highly successful formula of the first edition, the book now serves as the primary textbook of choice for any algorithm design course while maintaining its status as the premier practical reference guide to algorithms. NEW: (1) Incorporates twice the tutorial material and exercises. (2) Provides full online support for lecturers, and a completely updated and improved website component with lecture slides, audio and video. (3) Contains a highly unique catalog of the 75 most important algorithmic problems. (4) Includes new war stories and interview problems, relating experiences from real-world applications. Unique, handy reference package with a practical, hands-on appeal to a wide audience This classic bestseller has been expanded and updated with twice the original tutorial material and exercises Contains a highly unique catalog of the 75 most important algorithmic problems Additional useful information such as lecture slides and updates available via author's website
