創(chuàng)造穩(wěn)定的軟件需要有效的算法，但是程序設(shè)計者們很少能在問題出現(xiàn)之前就想到。《算法技術(shù)手冊》描述了現(xiàn)有的可以解決多種問題的算法，并且能夠幫助你根據(jù)需求選擇并實現(xiàn)正確的算法——只需要一定的數(shù)學(xué)知識即可理解并分析算法執(zhí)行。相對于理論來說，本書更注重實際運用，書中提供了多種程序語言中可用的有效代碼解決方案，可輕而易舉地適合一個特定的項目。有了這本書，你可以：
解決特定編碼問題或改進現(xiàn)有解決方案的執(zhí)行；
迅速確定與需要解決的問題相關(guān)的算法，并判定為什么這樣的算法是正確的；
探索C、C++、Java、Ruby中的算法解決方案，伴有實現(xiàn)訣竅；
了解一個算法預(yù)期的執(zhí)行情況及的執(zhí)行條件；
發(fā)現(xiàn)不同算法中相似設(shè)計產(chǎn)生的沖突；
學(xué)習(xí)先進的數(shù)據(jù)結(jié)構(gòu)以改進算法效率。
有了《算法技術(shù)手冊》，你可以學(xué)習(xí)如何改進算法的性能，這是軟件應(yīng)用成功的關(guān)鍵。
"作者汲取了大量鮮為人知的文獻資料，這本不可或缺的指南鞏固了理論與實際操作的平衡。通過它來理解算法變得更加輕松容易。"
