Algorithms + Data Structures = Programs  (English, Paperback, Niklaus Wirth)

This well-known treatise by the world renowned author presents a very systematic and scientific approach to the fundamental techniques associated with data composition and program development. The basic principles covered here are applicable to many scientific and engineering endeavours.

Key Features

• Covers important basic techniques of program and data structuring and demonstrates their suitability to a wide variety of practical applications.
• Develops programs in step-wise fashion, and expresses them in a well-structured, detailed, and unambiguous presentation.
• Stresses the importance of performance analysis and demonstrates how algorithm selection and refinement are used most effectively in program design.
• Presents illustrative programs that were run and thoroughly tested before their inclusion in this text.
• Practically oriented the text employs the minimum required mathematical formalism.
