Python Algorithms: Mastering Basic Algorithms in the Python Language

_Python Algorithms_ explains the Python approach to algorithm analysis and

design. Written by **Magnus Lie Hetland** , author of _Beginning Python_ ,

this book is sharply focused on classical algorithms, but it also gives a

solid understanding of fundamental algorithmic problem-solving techniques.

The book deals with some of the most important and challenging areas of

programming and computer science, but in a highly pedagogic and readable

manner. The book covers both algorithmic theory and programming practice,

demonstrating how theory is reflected in real Python programs. Well-known

algorithms and data structures that are built into the Python language are

explained, and the user is shown how to implement and evaluate others himself.
