Cormen, Leiserson, Rivest, Stein (CLRS)

CLRS refers to the well-known textbook "Introduction to Algorithms" by Thomas H. Cormen, Charles E. Leiserson, Ronald L. Rivest, and Clifford Stein. It's a comprehensive resource widely used in computer science to explain how algorithms—step-by-step procedures for solving problems—work. The book covers a broad range of topics including sorting, searching, graph algorithms, and data structures, providing both theoretical foundations and practical insights. Often called "CLRS" after the authors' initials, it serves as a fundamental reference for students, researchers, and professionals involved in designing and analyzing efficient algorithms.
