Seems like nice reference. But is it really useful outside a programming marathon or something like that? I mean, most of the algorithms described are already implemented by libraries for the most famous languages.

Anyhow, if I saw it being sold on a book store on a reasonable price, I'd defenetely buy it.


"I mean, most of the algorithms described are already implemented by libraries for the most famous languages."

Not everyone's so lucky as to lack a Not-Invented-Here syndrome and a drive for using esoteric languages and know how the "non-trivial" librairies are implemented.


This is awesome. It should definitely be converted to HTML and hosted publicly. I'll rummage through the .pdf in the mean time.
