CLRS (Introduction to Algorithms)

"CLRS," named after its authors (Cormen, Leiserson, Rivest, and Stein), is a comprehensive textbook that explains how algorithms—step-by-step procedures for solving problems—work in computer science. It covers a wide range of topics, from sorting and searching to complex topics like graph algorithms and data structures. The book emphasizes understanding the underlying principles, efficiency, and correctness of algorithms, helping programmers and students develop the ability to choose and implement effective solutions for computational challenges. Essentially, it's a detailed guide for mastering the logic and design behind computer programs.
