Inhaltsangabe

Most books on algorithms are narrowly focused on a single field of application. This unique book cuts across discipline boundaries, exposing readers to the most successful algorithms from a variety of fields. Algorithm derivation is a legitimate branch of the mathematical sciences driven by hardware advances and the demands of many scientific fields. The best algorithms are undergirded by beautiful mathematics. This book enables readers to look under the hood and understand how some basic algorithms operate and how to assemble complex algorithms from simpler building blocks.

In Algorithms from THE BOOK, Second Edition

• Julia code for experimentation accompanies most algorithms,
• a large number of classroom-tested exercises at the end of each chapter make it suitable as a textbook, and
• appendices contain background material often missing in undergraduate education as well as solutions to selected problems.
