Introduction to Algorithms: A Creative Approach

Rating:
Summary: Excellent supplemental book
Review: This book is a great supplement and not a bad introduction book either. If you find that you still have holes in your knowledge after reading the Cormen book (as I did) you'll find that many of them can be filled with this book. This book also has a better chapter on NP Complete problems than the Cormen book.

Rating:
Summary: Hard to follow, few examples and assumes you are a math wiz
Review: This book is for people who already understand the subject and need a condensed reference to refer to. This book does not explain problems or have meaningful examples to follow. Cormen et al's book is worlds better for someone just learning the subject.
