I want to do an in depth study of different types of algorithms. Anyone here can recommend any good books or could post some links which would be useful. Many friends told me that the book by Korman is good. Anyone here used that book?
 
Cormen is the standard. For a simpler alternative, you can try howoritz and sahani (they have two books, one is on data structures, one is algos, make sure you get the right one). For a more comlex one, try tardos.
 
Try "The art of computer programming" series by Knuth. It deals almost all parts of building an algorithm. For great programming questions and explanations of algorithms try Programming Challenges by Skiena
 
^^You are right... TAOCP is not for beginners for sure.... Its more of a reference text than something for beginners to learn from. Cormen is the best for you amongst all of them as its very beginner friendly.
 
thanks guys.... also don't want to start a new thread, so can any of you please post a link to C/C++ programming in linux.
 
get the sahani book first. Its very well written and in a simple language. after you master some of the things, you can go for another book.
