Question

IT education

Help or tell me how can I get a good base in relation to algorithms?

Answer 1

Cormen "Algorithms. Construction and analysis"
Sedgwick. Algorithms in C++. Fundamental Algorithms and Data Structures

Answer 2

I got a base at school and later learned a little at the university on data structures and algorithms.

Answer 3

1) Learn the theory. In my opinion, the best book is
Algorithms: construction and analysis
2) Solve many problems.
acm.timus.ru
informatics.mccme.ru
3)Compete with other people
codeforces.com
PS You can get a really powerful algorithmic base only with the help of excellent knowledge of the theory and solving a large number of problems.

Answer 4

Some all difficult books for a beginner are advised. He will lose any desire to delve into CS so quickly. Start better with Steven S. Skien "Algorithms. Development Guide". Very accessible and captivatingly described, a lot of tasks. And if you want to get a job in the future, then it is in this book that you will find interesting tasks that are offered by leading companies at interviews (at least I came across one of these).

Answer 5

Donald Knuth. The art of programming.
