One of my readers diao asked me to recommend books on data structures and algorithms, and I felt the need to spread them because algorithms and data structures are so damn important — just like we can’t live without oxygen, or green plants without CARBON dioxide!
In addition to Diao, a girl left a message on the background to recommend a wave of books on data structures and algorithms:
With that in mind, I spent two days without food or drink, and finally got it together. In addition, I also acted as a member of Baidu network disk and CSDN (easy to download resources), and asked several experts in data structure and algorithm to verify whether my book list is trustworthy — they unanimously affirmed my efforts.
Some readers may wonder, what’s the use of data structures? Is learning algorithms necessary? So let me pretend to answer these two questions first.
In computing, it is common to deal with problems like:
1) If the data is stored in a computer.
2) What methods can be used to solve this problem?
Data is the synthesis of all information that can be input into the computer. Structure is the relationship between data. Data structure is the storage of data and the relationship between them in the computer. How do you implement storage? You need to choose the right algorithm to be more efficient.
Niklaus Wirth, the father of Pascal and the pioneer of structured programming, has a very famous book called “Algorithm + Data Structure = Program”, which shows that data structure and algorithm are really important for programming.
Data structures and algorithms, like operating systems and computer networks, seem close to us but seem far away.
It’s close because if you don’t understand data structures and algorithms, you’re not going to be able to pass the interview, whether it’s for school or for social recruitment. The reason is far, because in practical work, if it does not involve the underlying business of operating system, search engine, network scheduling and so on, if it does not consider performance, it seems to be completely useless. As long as the API encapsulated by programming language is properly called, as long as the framework is used proficiently, the code can still be written as 66.
As someone who has been programming for more than a decade, I have to give you a serious warning.
If you’re a college student, learn about data structures and algorithms, or you’ll regret it when the interview comes up against you, unless you plan to spend your life in a small company.
If the postgraduate entrance exam, data structure is also a required subject.
If you’re already working and want to get out of CRUD, it’s important to learn data structures and algorithms as well, otherwise you’ll end up as an assistant engineer and engineer.
In addition, understanding data structures and algorithms also helps to read the source code and understand the design ideas behind it.
Now that we understand the importance of data structures and algorithms, I’m sure our readers are already rubbing their hands and saying, “Please tell us what books to read!”
Number one, Big Talk Data Structures.
The great thing about Big Data Structures is that it makes theory interesting, not boring. The biggest trouble in reading a technical book is not whether it is classic or not, but whether it can be read, read and learned, and the book is a good one. If you can’t read it, no matter how classic it is, it won’t help you at all, right?
The book has received mixed reviews on the Internet, but overall sales are good, and the author is also a veteran programmer. The examples in the book are in C.
The second book, Diagrams of Algorithms.
As the subtitle of The book Diagrams of Algorithms (code implemented in Python) says, “A fun introduction to algorithms like a novel.” It’s about diagrams, and it’s easy to understand, so it’s a lot easier to learn, right?
Through “Big Talk data structure” and “algorithm diagram” two books of learning, I believe readers will be able to get a start on data structure and algorithm. If you want to learn more systematically and in depth, please read on.
Data Structure and Algorithm Analysis
Black book, when you look at it, you know it’s a classic, right? The authors of Data Structure and Algorithm Analysis are also very careful, with examples not only in Java, but also in C and C++.
I am not good at C, so I want to read the Java version. Giao asked me to recommend some books of the Java version to him.
The fourth book, “Sword Finger Offer”
This book dissects 80 typical programming interview questions, so if you can figure out what to expect from this book, you should have no trouble handling interviews with the average company.
To put it bluntly, learning algorithms and data structures can be very hard. Since we have paid so much effort, our goal is clear: to get a better job. The book “Finger Offer” will definitely help us.
Brush questions, you can choose niuke.com or buckle, if it is a Java programmer, with Java brush questions on the line.

After reading these four books, if you can write them down one by one, I believe readers can pat their chests and say, “DATA structure and algorithm, I’ve got it!”
“A thousand readers make a thousand Hamlets.” Different readers have different feelings when reading the same book. In the same way, when a reader reads a different book on the same subject, the results can be quite different.
Then I think it is necessary to recommend some other books for different readers to choose from.
Fifth book, Interesting Data Structures
Explain more vivid, with C++ description, suitable for basic general beginners. The author Chen Xiaoyu is our Henan, also wrote another algorithm book, also very suitable for beginners.
Book six, “Aha Algorithm.”
An interesting algorithm primer, C language, no boring description, no difficult formula, all to practical application as the starting point.
7. Comic Book Algorithm: Xiao Grey’s Algorithmic Journey
The basic knowledge of algorithm and data structure, complex and changeable algorithm interview questions and practical application scenarios are described in the form of cartoons. There are two versions, one Python and one Java.
The eighth book, “Programmer code Interview Guide: IT Enterprise Algorithm and Data structure problem optimal solution”
This is a programmer code interview “magic book”! The book of IT famous enterprises code interview of all kinds of optimal solutions are summarized, and provide the relevant code implementation, select nearly 300 real classic code interview questions, “brush” this book, is the “king of questions”!
Can also be on the cattle online brush questions:

Book Nine, The Algorithm
This is a very suitable for self-study and as a teaching material algorithm book, features: the foundation is very comprehensive, the diagram is clear and easy to understand, mathematics requirements are low. The code is implemented through Java, although it is a large book, but difficult to understand.
Book 10, The Beauty of Data Structures and Algorithms
This isn’t technically a book, it’s a paid feature on XX Time. I will not say more about the reasons for recommendation, books are tired, it is a choice.
Recommend these ten first, enough everybody study period of time. Finally, let’s talk about the methods of learning data structures and algorithms. In brief, there are two points:
1) Choose the right book
This problem, I have helped you to solve, no matter which book you choose, the most important thing is to start, do not hesitate, early is an advantage.
2) Programming implementation and application
Understanding doesn’t mean you know how to use it, does it? Only their own hands to achieve, to repeated practice, to really master. The first practice may not remember, then the second and third time, do not rush, give yourself a little time and patience.
If you have some extra money, you are advised to buy paper books. If money is really tight and you have to buy gifts for your date, this Baidu link may ease your financial pressure:
