How is proofwriting not useful? What do you expect in an algorithms class? It’s called algorithms, not Python Frameworks or something.

- thrower123 7y agoI had hoped that we might write at least one line of executable code to actually implement any of the algorithms that we studied. I think the same course could have been much more useful and even fun if you had to turn in working C code in addition to all the pen-and-paper work.
- hackermailman 7y agoAlgorithm Design by Tardos/Kleinberg is a much better book for this imho, going through 200+ problems and designing algorithms to solve them. Less reference style than CLRS and more like TAOCP.
