The Art of Computer Programming, Volume 4, Fascicle 1

The Art of Computer Programming, Volume 4, Fascicle 1

This multivolume work on the analysis of algorithms by Donald Knuth has long been recognized as the definitive description of classical computer science. To begin the fourth and later volumes of the set, and to update parts of the existing three, Knuth has created a series of small books called fascicles.

Volume 4, Fascicle 1, enlivened by a wealth of Knuth's typically enjoyable examples, describes basic "broadword" operations and an important class of data structures that can make computer programs run dozens — even thousands — of times faster. Knuth brings together and explains a substantial amount of previously scattered but eminently practical information known only to a few specialists.

The Art of Computer Programming, Volume 4, Fascicle 1, a must-have for anybody who is faced with tough problems of a combinatorial flavor, is available as a Print Book and in Safari Books Online. Also available is a bundle containing all five fascicles from Volume 4, The Art of Computer Programming, Volume 4, Fascicles 0-4.
