See the Algorithm: A Visual Introduction to Computer Science's Most Important Ideas

Algorithms, finally visible. See the Algorithm turns computer science's most important ideas into pictures you can actually see. Binary search halving a phone book. Quicksort partitioning an array. Breadth-first search expanding across a graph. Dijkstra tracing the cheapest route. Recursion unfolding. Dynamic programming remembering. Each algorithm is presented three ways: as a story, as a visualization, and as working code in Python. The story tells you why. The picture tells you what. The...
