Algorithm Design: A Methodological Approach 150 Problems and - Detailed Solution

A best-seller in its French edition, this book details 150 problems, spanning on seven families of algorithms. For each problem, a precise and progressive statement is given. More important, a complete solution is detailed, with respect to the design principles that have been presented; often, some classical errors are pointed at.
