Review: The best general textbook on computer algorithms ever written. - Written by an MIT professor, this book covers ALL categories of computer algorithms. It is a somewhat challenging textbook for a first course in computer algorithms, but students can keep the book past graduation, and use it as a reference book while they work as professional software engineers.
Review: Honestly? I'm disappointed with reviewers... - Giving this book a bad review because: a) you had a bad instructor for the course b) you find the material difficult c) you can't understand pseudo-code are not what I would call constructive or worthwhile critiques of the text of this excellent book. PLEASE society, PLEASE understand that some topics you have to actually WORK at understanding. It won't be spoon fed to you. It seems moreso with Computer Science majors than other majors (I'm an electrical engineer undergrad, comp sci grad student) that they whine and whine and whine about the math or about it being difficult to actually have to work to understand something. Oh my GOODNESS!!!! It's hard? Well, BLAME THE BOOK. Rant over. This book is amazing. It's the bible of algorithms and, to some extent, data structures. If you're not aforementioned whiners, feel free to buy this book, work hard, and learn a lot! There's not a better book out there in my experience.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best general textbook on computer algorithms ever written.
*by P***E on August 7, 2025*

Written by an MIT professor, this book covers ALL categories of computer algorithms. It is a somewhat challenging textbook for a first course in computer algorithms, but students can keep the book past graduation, and use it as a reference book while they work as professional software engineers.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Honestly? I'm disappointed with reviewers...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for Interviews
*by A***A on December 3, 2012*

This is a book that was recommended to me by an actual HR rep at a top technology company. Despite the fact that I was pursuing a Program Manager position, she said that I'd still need to prep up a bit for Data Structures and Algorithms. Needless to say, I didn't do well on the interview, but the topics discussed throughout the book gave me an excellent introduction to the topic, and now I think that knowledge of algorithms is absolutely essential to being a good programmer. This book doesn't really assume any knowledge about the topic, so it could be a great way for you to get your feet wet on the topic.
