Grokking Algorithms

The three books that I have appreciated the most when it comes to computer science must be: - Code The Hidden Language of Computer Hardware and Software (https://www.programmingbooks.dev/#code) - Grokking Algorithms (https://www.programmingbooks.dev/#grokking-algorithms) - The Little Schemer (https://www.programmingbooks.dev/#the-little-schemer) These two books I really found interesting as well: - Nine Algorithms That Changed the Future (https://www.programmingbooks.dev/extra/#nine-algorithms-that... (https://www.programmingbooks.dev/extra/#nine-algorithms-that-changed-the-future)) - Good Math (https://www.programmingbooks.dev/extra/#good-math)

Introduction to Algorithms -Thomas H. Cormen Grokking Algorithms -Aditya Bhargava Cracking the Coding Interview Book by Gayle Laakmann McDowell

That's a terrific book. I'm not a professional programmer and had no training in algorithms when I saw it and picked it up. It was a great introduction for me, and I had a lot of fun discussing the topics with my father, who is a software engineer.

For a gentle introduction to algorithms and Big O, "Grokking Algorithms" is easy to read and fun. For more in depth and systematic study, Sedgwick's "Algorithms" is a very clear and beautiful book. For computer architecture, Petzold's "Code" is wonderful.

Grokking algorithms. Great book, especially for someone like me who doesn't deal too much with this stuff (as an embedded systems engineer). Grokking functional programming and deep learning seem awesome as well, but I haven't finished either so take my recommendation with a pinch of salt.
