Most books on algorithms are narrowly focused on a single field of application. This unique book cuts across discipline boundaries, exposing readers to the most successful algorithms from a variety of fields. Algorithm derivation is a legitimate branch of the mathematical sciences driven by hardware advances and the demands of many scientific fields. The best algorithms are undergirded by beautiful mathematics. This book enables readers to look under the hood and understand how some basic algorithms operate and how to assemble complex algorithms from simpler building blocks. Since publication of the first edition of Algorithms from THE BOOK, the number of new algorithms has swelled exponentially, with the fields of neural net modeling and natural language processing leading the way. These developments warranted the addition of a new chapter on automatic differentiation and its applications to neural net modeling. The second edition also corrects previous errors, clarifies explanations, adds worked exercises, and introduces new algorithms in existing chapters. In Algorithms from THE BOOK, Second Edition the majority of algorithms are accompanied by Julia code for experimentation, the many classroom-tested exercises at the end of each chapter make the material suitable for use as a textbook, and appendices contain not only background material often missing in undergraduate education but also solutions to selected problems.
