    &>The bible of all fundamental algorithms and the work that taught many of today’s software developers most of what they know about computer programming.

     

    Byte, September 1995

     

    I can’t begin to tell you how many pleasurable hours of study and recreation they have afforded me! I have pored over them in cars, restaurants, at work, at home… and even at a Little League game when my son wasn’t in the line-up.

    —Charles Long

     

    If you think you’re a really good programmer… read [Knuth’s] Art of Computer Programming… You should definitely send me a resume if you can read the whole thing.

    —Bill Gates

     

    It’s always a pleasure when a problem is hard enough that you have to get the Knuths off the shelf. I find that merely opening one has a very useful terrorizing effect on computers.

    —Jonathan Laventhol

     

    This first volume in the series begins with basic programming concepts and techniques, then focuses more particularly on information structures—the representation of information inside a computer, the structural relationships between data elements and how to deal with them efficiently. Elementary applications are given to simulation, numerical methods, symbolic computing, software and system design. Dozens of simple and important algorithms and techniques have been added to those of the previous edition. The section on mathematical preliminaries has been extensively revised to match present trends in research.

      The Essential Computer Science Reference

    2. Mateus Silva

      Now for the real CS training

    3. S. Keene-elliott

      What can I say about this set of books? It’s hard to not to repeat the praise that has been said so many times before, so I won’t. These are excellent books, period. What I will say is that anyone doing any sort of computer programming can benefit from the deep wisdom Knuth has captured in these volumes. While some sections may seem a bit dated, all of it is germane to creating efficient and elegant computer programs, whether you are a beginner or a seasoned pro looking to put a shine on your work.

    4. Guofeng Liu

      Forget Bill Gates or Steve Jobs; Donald Knuth is the patron saint of computer programming. This set would be a wonderful gift for a CS graduate or a dedicated computer programmer of any age. These aren’t for hobbyists or people with a passing interest in a subject, however. They are hard core, the real thing, the full monty.

      Archeologists will dig these up a thousand years from now and marvel at our primitive society’s understanding of computer programming and algorithms.

    5. J. F.

      Finally!

    6. Gergely Kovács

      Includes the long, long, long delayed volume 4 (both A and B) as well as updates to the first editions I bought in the 1970s after saying to the TA for my first programming course (in Fortran) that it seemed to me that there was a certain art to programming – and he pointed me at Don Knuth’s books on his bookshelf.

      Joke was on me! But I did get exposed to a whacky kind of misnamed science* called (Theoretical) Computer Science! I even worked for a Computer Science department at one point.

      Help support Prof Knuth in his (non-) retirement and learn an exciting new programming language (MIX) by buying the latest edition of his epic saga The Art of Computer Programming.

      (I’m hoping that Prof Knuth never actually retires – as he still owes us Volumes 5, 6, and 7!)

      *It is called Theoretical Computer Science but is really just an advanced area of mathematics not science. As my squash opponent once explained to me: if it is really science then it doesn’t need to have science in the name (physics or chemistry versus political science, social science, …).

    7. Dave the Iconoclast

      Will take a long time to read them all
