Product Details
- Creating robust software requires the use of efficient algorithms, but programmers seldom think about them until a problem occurs. Algorithms in a Nutshell describes a large number of existing algorithms for solving a variety of problems, and helps you select and implement the right algorithm for your needs -- with just enough math to let you understand and analyze algorithm performance. With its focus on application, rather than theory, this book provides efficient code solutions in several programming languages that you can easily adapt to a specific project. Each major algorithm is presented in the style of a design pattern that includes information to help you understand why and when the algorithm is appropriate. With this book, you will: Solve a particular coding problem or improve on the performance of an existing solutionQuickly locate algorithms that relate to the problems you want to solve, and determine why a particular algorithm is the right one to useGet algorithmic solutions in C, C++, Java, and Ruby with implementation tipsLearn the expected performance of an algorithm, and the conditions it needs to perform at its bestDiscover the impact that similar design decisions have on different algorithmsLearn advanced data structures to improve the efficiency of algorithms With Algorithms in a Nutshell, you'll learn how to improve the performance of key algorithms essential for the success of your software applications.

Software Development Editorial Review
**** "Algorithms in a Nutshell" offers an appealing alternative for software developers who are less concerned with the mathematical intricacies of algorithms and more focused on practical solutions. This book serves as a highly accessible reference, allowing users to quickly find the algorithms they need without wading through extensive mathematical proofs or heavy theoretical discussions. Many reviewers appreciate its user-friendly approach, emphasizing that one can swiftly locate solutions, understand the pseudocode provided, and apply the knowledge effectively in real-world situations. The book excels in presenting algorithms with an array of conceptual diagrams and straightforward pseudocode. Customers have Consistently highlighted its usefulness in quickly grasping sorting, searching, pathfinding, and graph algorithms. Critics, however, have pointed out certain issues within the code examples, mentioning bugs and a lack of input validation that could hinder a beginner's understanding. Despite these minor drawbacks, the Consensus is clear: this book stands out for its clarity and utility in practical applications, making it an excellent resource for both experienced developers and those prepping for software engineering interviews. The organization of topics and the engaging writing style contribute to its effectiveness as a learning tool. While it may not cover every algorithm in depth, the book fulfills its promise of delivering practical insights without the overload of mathematical jargon, thereby earning a strong recommendation among its readers. **Pros and Cons:** **
