The Algorithm Design Manual
#1
i stumbled onto this free book the other day, and just started reading through. looks really good for new challenges now that we aren't doing banners ;-))

https://archive.org/details/2008-book-th...%20Archive

featured according foreward is catelog of 75 algorithms, the author talks in psuedo code or mathy and examples are in C but i think more advanced qb64ers can figure out a translation.

+1 thanks @vince you just doubled my interest in the book, i was thinking sudoku would be a great recursion example because that is what is used in my app to find a solution.

Reminds me of L. Ron Hubbard, who similarly had little to say, but somehow expressed it in over a 1,000 written pages. When it comes to programming, I'll stick with the JFCI method. Just ******* code it!
