Design and Analysis of Algorithms (Fall, 2008)

Cohesive and logical follow up to the undergraduate algorithms class. These lectures will not teach you how to program exactly, but they will scaffold how you can think about algorithms at a high level and problem solve with computers. 

Based on my experience, you&#39;ll be better equipped to evaluate and learn from the many, many resources scattered online. There&#39;s a flood of data structures and algorithms available, so it helps to know the main categories, problem types, and tools to evaluate them in practice.

Good luck and happy coding!
