THE ALGORITHM DESIGN MANUAL 3ED (HB 2020)

Oh my god I got it, I have been reading these books and annihilating my eyes on PDFs for so long, But somehow I finally get lucky enough to find such a sweet deal, This book is 100% original print, the binding is legit(it's hardcover), the print is legit(it's full color). I'm so happy I found the deal and got it at just 1500rs which is probably the best price it's ever going to be at

Although the content is good and well known book, I got probably old book with biding came off. It may be second hand. You might try your luck and buy again or buy this book only once from offline store like Tata Book House by paying little more.Kindle version does not do justice to technical books as far as I have noticed, at least not for me.

Why a star less because some of the printed portion looks as if washed.

The media could not be loaded.  The book was delivered today, the binding quality is so bad that the pages are just coming off loose. And this is literally the first 10-15 pages including the table of contents. It’s unbelievable considering you’re paying upwards of ₹2800 for this quality. The seller I bought from is DP Bookhouse.

Just bought the book and opened the preface to see this. That's how bad the binding is. The print quality is okayish, not very great but not bad either.

The book contains an introduction to Quantum algorithm which is not available in most of the contemporary books in data structures and algorithms

It's an overpriced book, even though the content is fine but for a book paying 2k is too much. The book printing quality is also very bad.

It is a little heavy on the pocket as when I bought it for 1400. The paper quality was great and the material is great read. If you really are into books and only look to get better at algorithms via books, then only buy it.

This is one of the best books as a first introduction to algorithms that I ever read. It has just the right amount of theory (other books presents mostly theory and no suggestion for the practical use of the algorithms).

I have the second edition. The third edition comes with some nice improvements. Source code is colored. Programming challenges from onlinejudge.org, hackerrank, and leetcode. A chapter about hashing and randomized algorithms.Great book.

Es un libro muy útil para aprender y practicar algoritmos. Necesario tener conocimiento de álgebra y cálculo.

I do not recommend this book if you want to learn things from scratch. It is extremely hard to follow, with a lot of assumptions that are not explained or covered later in the book. It may have more value if you know a particular subject and want to refresh your knowledge, but otherwise it is a torture to read and learn from. One of the worst technical books I have ever had.

This is not for beginners but then it isn't advertised as such. If you're a nerdy sort then you'll enjoy working through this book. Also, it uses limited colour throughout (not a great deal) but that makes it more interesting. On the back of the book it says it takes the mystery out of algorithms and yes it helps. Am I glad I bought it? Yes, because this kind of thing 'entertains' me, however it is useful if you are preparing for an interview. The price is hefty though and I would suggest looking for an Amazon warehouse purchase if available. At the moment, it's selling for over £50.00 and that is really too much.
