Algorithms and Programming: Problems and Solutions (Modern Birkhäuser Classics) 1st Edition by Alexander Shen (PDF)

Description

This book is primarily intended for a first-year undergraduate course in programming. It is structured in a problem-solution format that requires the student to think through the programming process, thus developing an understanding of the underlying theory. Each chapter is more or less independent. Although the author assumes some moderate familiarity with programming constructs, the book is easily readable by a student taking a basic introductory course in computer science. Students and teachers will find this both an excellent text for learning programming and a source of problems for a variety of courses.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I simply love it: good content, a fairly rich set of algorithmic problems and not too much redundant information.The only drawback I see is the poor text formatting; it feels like an old book, not too many graphics, but mostly text; to me this is not a reason not to give it 5 starts, but it’s worth mentioning for those who consider the visual aspect an important criterion.

⭐That book doesn’t contain pure algorithms theory (like Kormen’s or Skiena’s book), but problems (and most of them are with solutions). Every chapter starts with the simple problem, followed by some discussions of possible solutions, and after more and more challenging tasks ends with pretty tricky problems.The book (in my opinion) is really very practical (well, it contains some theory, but not very formal) and is invaluable for those who are preparing to the programming contests or Google/Microsoft-like interviews.
