Decrease and Conquer Algorithms  (English, Paperback, Aditya Chatterjee)

This book will change your Algorithmic Problem-Solving skills forever. On mastering this book, you will be closer to become a National Programmer. This book “Decrease and Conquer Algorithms” is the only book you need to master the algorithmic technique of Decrease and Conquer. The focus is towards core problems for Coding Interviews. Very few programmers ever heard about “Decrease and Conquer” technique. This book will help you take a step closer to becoming a National Programmer. Note: This is different from "Divide and Conquer" and is a much stronger algorithmic technique. This book explains the technique in depth by introducing three variants of it. For each variant, the book presents the core idea followed by several algorithmic problems using the technique. This will help you see standard algorithms like search algorithm and challenging problems like Fake Coin Problem with a new view. You should go through the implementations irrespective of the Programming Language you use as the ideas remain the same. Improving Implementation skills is important for Coding Interviews and this book will help you achieve it. This book is a must if you are preparing for Coding Interviews at top Software Companies and for Competitive Programming Contests like Google Code Jam, ICPC, Facebook Hacker Cup, International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI), United States of America Computing Olympiad (USACO), Indian Computing Olympiad (ICO) and much more.
