Algorithms (The MIT Press Essential Knowledge series)

Great intro to a fascinating subject!
This was an excellent introduction to algorithms, from simple to more complicated. Algorithms get a bad rap in today's culture, not due to what they are, but due to how they are applied and blinding speed today's computing environment that can run thousands of iterations in less than a second.A fundamental takeaway was that all algorithms can be done by hand as it is nothing more than an instructional framework to solve a particular problem. The chapters on search and on sort were well done. The last chapter on Deep Learning and neuron networks was really well done in my opinion and explained the concept in a way that was simple to understand. Hopefully all the books in the MIT series are as well done.

Good book to prepare for a challenging topic
My daughter found this book good preparation for her entry studies studies of algorithms and programing logic to solve software development problems and projects. I want to read it when she is done.

Good Book!!!!
The book is good to understand the basics about algorithm. The book is like as story telling book. So, you need to read as thoroughly.

Should publish in newspapers how Facebook Algorithms actually work
This is a basic explanation of the importance of Algorithms in cyberspace like Facebook. There are Bad Algorithms and Good Algorithms. In the case of Facebook, Who are the shareholders paying the Algorithms-expert Engineers to Prompt someone to any Feature Adverts, Notifications, News, or Events?
