Ask HN - Real life work makes me dumb; Recommend algorithm learning resources
I've been building non-complex real-world apps for a very long time.<p>I am becoming dumb.<p>Can anybody recommend good algorithm resources, tuts, books, and problems.<p>I am aware of http://projecteuler.net/ and am getting started on that!

- emmapersky 15y agoPick up a copy of Steven Skiena's "The Algorithm Design Manual" It will take you through the vast majority of data structures and algorithms you might ever need to know - it's recommended reading for CS heavy interviews.
- ayers 15y ago"Introduction to Algorithms" by T Cormen ,C Leiserson, R Rivest and C Stein. This book covers both basic and advance topics in a well written manner. Correct me if I am wrong but I believe this book is used in some MIT courses. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Introduction-Algorithms-T-Cormen/dp/0262533057/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1326274026&sr=1-1 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Introduction-Algorithms-T-Cormen/dp/...
- glimcat 15y agoI came here to recommend this exact book. Great reference text.
- karussell 15y agoNice that I'm not the only one :) My preferences are now search engines and graph theory. For the latter one you can even get a bad paid job (pockettaxi.de) but where you can hack on nice algorithms! Here are some nonefree and free graph theorie books: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/510758/can-you-suggest-a-good-book-on-graphs-and-graph-algorithms http://stackoverflow.com/questions/510758/can-you-suggest-a-...
- factorialboy 15y agoExcellent, thanks! :D
