The Perfect Algorithm. Graph Algorithms and Data Structures

Algorithms are the heart and soul of computer science. They are indispensable, found everywhere—from network routing and genomic calculations to cryptography and machine learning. "The Perfect Algorithm" will turn you into a true pro who can set tasks and masterfully solve them both in life and during job interviews at any IT company. In the second book, Tim Rafgarden—a guru of algorithms—will talk about graph search and its applications, the shortest path search algorithm, as well as the use and implementation of certain data structures: heaps, binary search trees, hash tables, and Bloom filters. The series of books "The Perfect Algorithm" is aimed at those who already have programming experience and is based on online courses that have been regularly conducted since 2012. You will advance to a new level to see the bigger picture, understand low-level concepts, and mathematical nuances.
