Book Reviews of Introduction to Algorithms, Second Edition

Book Review: A classic textbook and reference for everyday needs
Summary: 5 Stars

The "Introduction to Algorithms" book is well-known to those people that are related to Computer Science. It is a very well written book that proved entertaining and challenging when it was the primary text for our Algorithms class, as well as handy when confronted with real-life applications of the algorithms presented. I found the exercises very good, and I liked the fact that the chapters were self-containing.

The sections on linear sorting and hashing are very practical, in my opinion, but I suppose the same could be said about most of the other chapters.

Well-deserved 5 stars from me!
