In Algorithms Illuminated, Tim Roughgarden teaches the basics of algorithms in the most accessible way imaginable. This Omnibus Edition contains the complete text of Parts 1-4, with thorough coverage of asymptotic analysis, graph search and shortest paths, data structures, divide-and-conquer algorithms, greedy algorithms, dynamic programming, and NP-hard problems. Hundreds of worked examples, quizzes, and exercises, plus comprehensive online videos, help readers become better programmers; sharpen their analytical skills; learn to think algorithmically; acquire literacy with computer science's greatest hits; and ace their technical interviews.

'Algorithms Illuminated is academic gold for both students and instructors. The most incredible thing about this book is the way it reaches different types of learners. Beginning students love the approach of getting exposed to complex material slowly and methodically, with lots of intuition and illustrations; advanced students can focus their energy on the formal treatment, going back to the intuition as needed. I love this book because it makes very difficult concepts accessible to everyone.' Thomas Cook, US Military Academy at West Point
