Algorithmic Thinking: A Problem-Based Introduction

Readers tackle challenging topics like recursion, dynamic programming, graphs, greedy algorithms, heaps, hash tables, segment trees, and other data structures for efficiently handling data. The book contains no pseudocode: all code is written in C and is thoroughly explained in the text (C is a de facto programming language for programming competitions). Zingaro also shows how several problems can be reduced to algorithms on graphs. See more
