Simple algorithm tutorials? [closed]

Question

I want to learn algorithms using some very basic simple tutorials. Are there any out there? I have heard of recursion and stuff and I would like to get good at it. Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

I would start out by taking a look at EternallyConfuzzled which contains great tutorials for basic Data Structures an Algorithms including linked lists and binary search trees, sorting and searching algorithms. If you want to learn more after this I would recommend the following books in order of increasing complexity, completeness, and required math knowledge:

• Algorithms in C (also available in C++ and Java)
• Introduction to Algorithms
• The Art of Computer Programming

Answer 2

If you want to learn algorithms this book is the best choice.
