About this title

Synopsis

You know how to code...
...but is it enough?

Do you feel left out when other programmers talk about asymptotic bounds?
Have you failed a job interview because you don't know computer science?

Volume one covers the most frequently referenced topics, including:
- Algorithms and data structures
- Graphs
- Problem-solving techniques
- Complexity theory

The author, a senior developer at a major software company with a PhD in computer science, takes you through what you would have learned while earning a four-year computer science degree. When you finish this book, you'll have the tools you need to hold your own with people who have - or expect you to have - a computer science degree.

You already know how to program. Don't let the lack of a degree hold back your career.
