Advanced Algorithms and Data Structures

by Marcello La Rocca

As a software engineer, you’ll encounter countless programming challenges that initially seem confusing, difficult, or even impossible. Don’t despair! Many of these “new” problems already have well-established solutions. Algorithms and Data Structures in Action teaches you powerful approaches to a wide range of tricky coding challenges that you can adapt and apply to your own applications. Providing a balanced blend of classic, advanced, and new algorithms, this practical guide upgrades your programming toolbox with new perspectives and hands-on techniques.

Great book. I like the "real life" examples that make every algorithm easier to grasp.

[Francesco Cavallaro · Rating 5 out of 5]

Well structured, clear, compelling book!
You can read the solution for the specific problem you are looking for, but it would be really interesting have the solutions to all problems presented in the book, for the style and the logic that there is behind.

Was lucky to have met Marcello in person and found the book to be structured with the same level of attention to topics as he is approaching real life situations from a dev perspective.

I've read a couples of chapters, I think it's the best book for the topic.

I listened to the Audible version and it's great, easy to follow if you have previous data structures knowledge.

Very valuable update on many popular algorithms used today in both Big Data and Artificial Intelligence. Some stuff I knew about, but most I didn't, so its a nice overview for me. If you do Python or R, even at the hobbyist level - this book may help close some of the gaps in the algo's that are used in those environments. I'm a big fan of audio delivery of this technical content! I suggest you have at least am e-book version to read along with, as many formulas are not spoken in the audio version. I don't consider that bad either, because if they read those formulas, it could suck the life out of the audiobook. Well done audio-textbook on Manning's part (I bought the ebook directly from Manning at half the Kindle price)

Would have been 4 stars if the pdf did not end around 50% of the audio.
