PRACTICAL ALGORITHMICS - PIOTR STAŃCZYK

Discover the fascinating world of practical algorithmics with Piotr Stańczyk's book! In an era of increasing importance of technical and computer science, the ability to program effectively is becoming crucial. This book is an excellent introduction to the subject of algorithms, combining theory with practical applications, ideal for both beginners and advanced programmers.

• Practical approach to algorithmics, from theory to applications.
• Essential knowledge and tools to participate in programming competitions.
• Overview of the implementation of basic algorithms and data structures.
• Algorithmic library created by the Warsaw Predators team.
• Intuitive approach to algorithmic issues.
• Concise implementation of algorithms in C++.
• Numerous sample competition tasks with hints.

This book stands out from other academic publications due to its practical approach to algorithmics. In an era of growing interest in programming among both students and students, Practical Algorithmics provides the necessary knowledge and tools for effective participation in programming competitions. The reader will find an overview of the implementation of basic algorithms and data structures that can be applied directly or adapted in a simple way to solve competition tasks.

The foundation of the book is an algorithmic library, which was created and expanded during the preparation of the Warsaw Predators team from the University of Warsaw to represent this university at international competitions. The unique character of the book consists of the following elements: presentation of all the more important from the point of view of competitions sections of algorithmics, intuitive approach to the presented algorithmic issues, concise, effective implementation of the discussed algorithms in C++, numerous sample competition tasks with hints gradually directing to the correct solution of the task, as well as with the address of the website where you can find programs that are solutions to these tasks.

Thematic lists of tasks from around the world with the possibility of testing their solutions on the websites of competitions, references to literature enabling detailed knowledge of the described issues from the theoretical side, valuable advice on the strategy of participation in competitions. This work should be read by anyone who wants to improve their algorithmic and programming skills. The book has 310 pages, a format of 235x169 mm and was published in 2015 by PWN in paperback.
