Overview: Author Eric Lippert introduces fabulous solutions using uncommon algorithms and data structures. There’s a lot more to algorithms than the useful-but-boring recipes you recite for every interview. This unique book introduces a collection of amazing algorithms that have the potential to change the way you program. To get the most out of this book you’ll want to have some experience with programming, either professionally or recreationally, and a desire to add new tools to your toolbox. Familiarity with the “big-O” notation used to describe asymptotic performance will be useful, but not required. All the code is written in C#, the language I know best, but will be understandable to any programmer who has a working knowledge of a modern object-oriented language such as Java, C++, and so on. Fabulous Adventures in Data Structures and Algorithms teaches you how to solve programming challenges with lesser-known algorithmic approaches. You’ll begin by examining immutable data structures—stacks, queues, deques, and unusual constructions like Hughes lists—that take on conventional assumptions about performance. Next, you’ll investigate algorithms drawn from building developer tools, from backtracking search in graph coloring, to unification and anti-unification. Finally, you’ll venture into randomness, developing data structures and algorithms for discrete and continuous distributions, sequence operations on probability distributions, and Bayesian reasoning. For working programmers who know C#, Java, Python, or similar object-oriented language. Examples in C#.
