Synopsis

Algorithms and data structures lie at the heart of computer science, and are essential tools for every practising programmer. This book provides an indepth treatment of the central algorithms and data structures of computer science, together with an introduction to the techniques of design, correctness and analysis required for understanding them. Beginning with coverage of techniques followed by the major application areas of lists, trees, symbol tables, priority queues, sorting, disjoint sets, and graph algorithms. The theory is then completed with a closing chapter on lower bounds.
