40 Algorithms Every Programmer Should Know in Python

Understanding how algorithms work and being able to apply them to solve practical problems is a must-have for any programmer or developer. This book will help you not only develop your skills in using algorithms but also understand the principles of their functioning, their logic, and mathematics.

You will start with an introduction to algorithms, moving from searching and sorting to linear programming, page ranking, and graphs, and even work with machine learning algorithms. Theory is meaningless without practice, so you will work on weather forecasting, clustering tweets, and movie recommendation mechanisms. Finally, you will master parallel processing, which will allow you to solve problems that require substantial computational power.

By the end, you will become an expert in solving real computational problems using a wide range of diverse algorithms.
