This gives me some respite. I started CLRS a month ago, and although the progress has been excruciatingly slow, I am moving pages. It's quite fulfilling to understand how languages work underneath..
- natalyarostova 8y agoI started a month ago too, and I also find it excruciatingly slow. Make sure you use the MIT opencourseware that uses the book, as they provide problem sets and answers, which is very valuable. Although as learning things always goes, I "feel" like I am learning nothing and making no real progress, but then I look back on what I now know that I didn't before, and it's a lot!
- sidcool 8y agoCan you please provide a link to the courseware?

- b3b0p 8y agoI've read some of and done exercises in The Algorithm Design Manual instead of CLRS as I was always told and read CLRS is more a reference. I found The Algorithm Design Manual interesting and nicely paced, not slow at all. I actually very much enjoy it and will often re-read chapters or sections and pick out things I might have just slightly glossed over. I can't say anything about CLRS as I haven't read it or any parts of it.
