Algorithms and Data Structures for Those Who Hate Reading Long Reads

Algorithms are the heart of programming. The right choice of them determines whether a program will work instantly or make you wait an eternity. But how to figure it all out if you are just at the beginning of your journey?

This bright book makes learning algorithms and data structures simple and engaging. Thanks to full-color illustrations, diagrams, and clear examples, complex concepts become understandable even for beginners. You will learn what algorithm efficiency is, how sorting, searching, graphs, and hash tables work, and you will also get acquainted with cryptography, data compression, information security, and machine learning (clustering algorithm). The material is presented in such a way that you won’t just memorize the algorithms, but also learn to apply them in practice.
