No matter what your motivations are, this text helps equip you with a solid understanding of most common algorithms that run as many electronic devices and applications as one can imagine. Besides, your learning of algorithms is enhanced with implementations in C, with many examples from real coding interviews from a few top computer and software tech companies such as Amazon, Apple, Facebook, and Google. The programming language C is chosen as it is not only the closest to how actual computing devices work but also the most compact in terms of programming language syntax and constructs. C is the most ideal language for learning algorithms, as mostly you have to code everything yourself and you can do anything you want with it. Although some may suggest that algorithms can be understood and studied in a language- and machine-independent manner, this text is heavy on coding and light on math and textual descriptions. After all, it’s your coding skill that will be appreciated most, eventually. To help you assess the level of your problem-solving skills with algorithms and implementations in C, three very interesting, real onsite coding interview problems are made available in the Preface section of this text. The subjects covered in this book are logically organized as follows: * Introduction to algorithm design * Implementing algorithms in C * Sorting* Searching* Hash tables * Linked lists * Queues * Trees * Graphs * Miscellaneous (mixed) In essence, this text helps you learn the most common algorithms and implementations in C within a manageable timeframe of a few months.
