Ask HN: How to learn Computer Algorithms for an electrical engineer?
Folks, what has been your go-text to do computer algorithms. I am a Firmware engineer (with Electrical Engg.) and haven't ventured much into using algorithm in my day-to-day work. I was trying out few problems in SPOJ and Topcoder and felt the heat. Please suggest some systematic approach to learning/ mastering algos..
- federicoponzi 9y agoThere are many courses available for free on Coursera and Edx to learn algorithms. Also there are a couple of introduction to algorithms from Thomas Cormen (one of the authors of the wellknown CLRS book): https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-006-introduction-to-algorithms-fall-2011/ https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-compu... https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-046j-design-and-analysis-of-algorithms-spring-2015/index.htm https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-compu...
