Algorithms by Robert Sedgewick
This book presents an interesting challenge. It talks about algorithms
yet it does not present algorithms, nor does it define algorithm as
anything more than a "problem-solving method suitable for
implementation as computer programs[p.4]." Instead, it exhibits
programs which are the implementations of algorithms and discusses them
as if the algorithm is apparent. The reader is left with the challenge
of learning to discriminate between what is essential about an
algorithm, and how to preserve that in an implementation, versus what
is inessential to the algorithm and introduced on account of the
implementation and the use of particular programming tools.
