Texts
The required text for the course is Introduction to The Design and Analysis of Algorithms, Third Edition (Addison-Wesley, 2012, ISBN 0-13-231681-1) by Anany Levitin. This is available from the Siena Bookstore (and elsewhere). If you buy elsewhere, be sure to get the correct edition.
We will also occasionally refer to a data structures text, Java Structures: Data Structures in Java for the Principled Programmer, "Root 7" Edition (a free online textbook) by Duane Bailey. You may print or view the text in Portable Document Format.
Other assigned readings will be only from freely available sources or proprietary sources accessible through Siena's library.
