Features: This multi-volume work on algorithm analysis has long been recognized as a definitive description of classic computer science. This volume, along with the recently published second part of Volume 4, sets the stage for the eagerly awaited Art of Computer Programming, Volume 4, Combinatorial Algorithms. As part of a lengthy chapter on combinatorial searching, this volume begins the discussion on generating all combinations and partitions. In Knuth's exploration of these two topics, readers will not only encounter much new content but also discover rich connections to Volumes 1 through 3 and other aspects of computer science and mathematics. As always, the book includes numerous exercises and challenging problems.
