Negative Positive
Title: Great for Interviews
Review: This is a book that was recommended to me by an actual HR rep at a top technology company. Despite the fact that I was pursuing a Program Manager position, she said that I'd still need to prep up a bit for Data Structures and Algorithms.Needless to say, I didn't do well on the interview, but the topics discussed throughout the book gave me an excellent introduction to the topic, and now I think that knowledge of algorithms is absolutely essential to being a good programmer. This book doesn't really assume any knowledge about the topic, so it could be a great way for you to get your feet wet on the topic.
