What is this Python project?

Problem Solving with Algorithms and Data Structures Using Python SECOND EDITION by Bradley N. Miller and David L. Ranum. This is a great book for beginner - intermediate Software Developers looking to improve their knowledge on DSA. Describe features. This book has 3 key features:

  • A strong focus on problem solving introduces students to the fundamental data structures and algorithms by providing a very readable text without introducing an overwhelming amount of new language syntax.

  • Algorithm analysis in terms of Big-O running time is introduced early and applied throughout.

  • Python is used to facilitate the success of beginning students in using and mastering data structures and algorithms.

  • Book on Amazon

What's the difference between this Python project and similar ones?

  • Many books either have too many visuals and not enough code or vice versa. This book provides a perfect balance.
  • The topics chosen to illustrate algos are hard to find described better in other books.
  • Extremely clear, and reader-friendly without sacrificing depth and breadth of topics. Covers classic/important cs problems in addition to helping consolidate Python syntax.
