Through videos and learning activities, students use programming language knowledge and logical thinking skills to divide problems into steps to be solved by a computer.

A comprehensive collection of algorithm implementations for fundamental problems in combinatorial algorithms. Provides algorithms for common programming problems. It also provides pointers on how to implement those algorithms in various different languages

We live in a world run by algorithms, computer programs that make decisions or solve problems for us. In this riveting, funny talk, Kevin Slavin shows how modern algorithms determine stock prices, espionage tactics, even the movies you watch. But, he asks: If we depend on complex algorithms to manage our daily decisions- when do we start to lose control? [15:07]

You work at the college library. You're in the middle of a quiet afternoon when suddenly, a shipment of 1,280 books arrives. The books are in a straight line, but they're all out of order, and the automatic sorting system is broken. How can you sort the books quickly? Chand John shows how, shedding light on how algorithms help librarians and search engines speedily sort information. [4:37]

Describes bottom-up design methodology and differentiates it from top-down procedures. Contains some questions to help choose a particular methodology.

This page explains how a bubble sort works along with examples and source code.
