Features: The "Classic Original Book Library" series is designed for computer teaching in domestic universities in response to the call by the Ministry of Education to use original foreign teaching materials. After extensively soliciting and listening to opinions from the series' "Expert Advisory Committee," more than 30 textbooks with moderate length and in-depth explanations were ultimately selected. Most of them have been adopted by world-renowned universities such as MIT, Stanford, U.C. Berkeley, and CMU. The series not only covers core courses commonly offered in computer science programs in domestic universities, such as programming, data structures, operating systems, computer architecture, databases, compiler principles, software engineering, graphics, communication and networks, and discrete mathematics, but also features unique strengths—some are written by language designers, some have remained popular for over three decades, and some have been adopted by hundreds of universities worldwide. Under the guidance of these well-crafted and comprehensive masterpieces, readers are sure to progress from entering the hall to mastering the palace of computer science. This book is one of them.
