Good ebook for learning data structures & algorithm

5 pointsby ankit1200313 yıl önce4 comments

Hi there,

I am c/c++ programmer. I have 3 years of programming in C. I wish to contribute to open source but I am demotivated by my lack of algorithm knowledge.

Please name few good books that will give me a fair introduction to Algorithms like search algos, etc etc.

I don't mind if I have to learn some Math for it.

Thanks in advance Ankit.

Here's my list:

Structure & Interpretation of Computer Programs (Abelman, Sussman - Lisp oriented, classic) Algorithms in a Nutshell (OReilly) Clever Algorithms (Jason Brownlee. Uses Ruby for examples) Data Mining Analysis - Fundamental Algorithms (Mo. Zaki - ebook) Python for Data Analysis (Wes McKinney) Mining of Massive Datasets (Rajaraman, Leskovec, Ullman - ebook)

Enjoy.

The art of computer programming; not really an introduction, but a must read.

You want CLRS. That should be plenty to get you started
