- renox 8y agoA book about the design patterns is a good idea, the original book by then the gang of 4? I disagree, IMHO this book isn't well written, now the question is: is there a better book on this topic?

- prani10 8y agoIntroduction to Algorithms might not be the best thing to start with. The name is very much misleading
- djaychela 8y agoGlad to see I'm not the only one who thinks this - it's one of the many areas I need to look at, and saw that recommended elsewhere... took a look on Amazon and got completely intimidated! If 1000+ pages is an introduction, what does the chapter and verse look like? (I've started reading Grokking Algorithms this week, and it's been a much better introduction - I know it's not as in depth as some other books, but I'm making good progress with it and not drowning in complexity from the get go)
- kevinskii 8y agoDon't let its size intimidate you. Introduction to Algorithms is quite approachable and its chapters are pretty well self-contained.
- djaychela 8y agoThanks - I'll keep that in mind (although I'm old and attempting to retrain, and have found lots of things more difficult than everyone else appears to!)
