Language: English.\u003c\/p\u003e\n This text, extensively class-tested over a decade at UC Berkeley and UC San Diego, explains the fundamentals of algorithms in a story line that makes the material enjoyable and easy to digest. Emphasis is placed on understanding the crisp mathematical idea behind each algorithm, in a manner that is intuitive and rigorous without being unduly formal. \u003cp\u003e Features include: The use of boxes to strengthen the narrative: pieces that provide historical context, descriptions of how the algorithms are used in practice, and excursions for the mathematically sophisticated. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Carefully chosen advanced topics that can be skipped in a standard one-semester course, but can be covered in an advanced algorithms course or in a more leisurely two-semester sequence. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e An accessible treatment of linear programming introduces students to one of the greatest achievements in algorithms. An optional chapter on the quantum algorithm for factoring provides a unique peephole into this exciting topic. In addition to the text, DasGupta also offers a Solutions Manual, which is available on the Online Learning Center. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \"Algorithms is an outstanding undergraduate text, equally informed by the historical roots and contemporary applications of its subject. Like a captivating novel, it is a joy to read.\" Tim Roughgarden Stanford University\u003c\/p\u003e  ","brand":"Sanjoy Dasgupta, Christos Papadimitriou, Umesh Vazirani","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46068841283818,"sku":"9780073523408","price":44.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/5301\/6298\/files\/61KZlBVoTML._SY522.jpg?v=1781185971","url":"https:\/\/textbookme.store\/products\/algorithms","provider":"TextbookMe","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
