Data Structures and Algorithms (Addison-Wesley Series in Computer Science and Information Pr)

I found this book to be detailed and very good at explaining things. I was able to teach myself the concept of time complexity and working through algorithms

The book was very clean and looked like new. Now if I could just comprehend the contents, all would be good. ;-)

Well written and nice explanations.

A classic.

This review applies to both books by these authors: It applies to "The design and analysis of computer algorithms"; and it applies to "Data structures and algorithms". The CONTENT of the books is wonderful; marvelous; and if you learn it you will be on your way to be a great computer scientist. The PRINTING, by once great but now low quality Addison-Wesley... is a whole other matter. The book binding is almost ripping after 2 weeks of reading; the paper is garbage, and the ink is also very poor. Wonderful books to have. Perhaps in digital form; but not these garbage Addison-Wesley copies. These are pretty lame.

The book is in good condition.

how else can one report an error in the website description? epic book 5 stars - poor website description

Pros: -Covers a lot -Good for self-motivated study, if using with other references -Illustrations are good for overall data structures Cons: -Doesn't provide full implementations of most data structures -Dense text, the author often takes a lot of words to say little -At the same time, the author does not spend enough time on certain data types -Along with actually implementing more methods, illustrations of methods would help -If you don't have a strong math background, explanations of algorithms will go right over your head

Classic book, and great on the content. Paves the way to think innovatively on algorithms; it is not the coverage itself, but what actually goes in at a principle-level to design/define an algorithm; that makes this book so great.

I have no knowledge of this item as it was a Birthday gift. The recipient however, was very pleased with it . The item arrived within the dates given and was in excellent order. Excellent service

es un libro que emplee durante la carrera ... y lo tenía en la lista para "compar algún día". Es Nostalgia, pero si volviera a estudiar la carrera lo volvería a consultar.

The book itself is pretty good, in my opinion. But the seller sent the used paperback instead of a new hardcover.

Good
