Donald Knuth is one of the greatest and most impactful computer scientists and mathematicians ever. He is the recipient in 1974 of the Turing Award, considered the Nobel Prize of computing. He is the author of the multi-volume work, the magnum opus, The Art of Computer Programming. He made several key contributions to the rigorous analysis of the computational complexity of algorithms. He popularized asymptotic notation, that we all affectionately know as the big-O notation. He also created the TeX typesetting which most computer scientists, physicists, mathematicians, and scientists and engineers use to write technical papers and make them look beautiful.

I opened his book Concrete Mathematics and I cried. He is not from this planet.

Any idea how can a newbie learn to write efficienct code

@DanielNyong 4 года назад

Afreen Bhati buy one book and build projects. You get better by writing thousands of code.

@afreenbhati7521 4 года назад

@@DanielNyong thanks for the great advice sir, any good book suggestion is welcome :)

@DanielNyong 4 года назад

Afreen Bhati I heard Donald knuth’s books are good start there. Buy a good book too on the language you want to learn and stick with it. Get a list of projects you want to work on beginner to advanced, and start knocking them out. eg: 1. A to do list. 2. A calculator 3. Other easy web/mobile apps 4. A browser 5. A compiler 6. An OS 7. Neural net Your creativity is the only limit. Good luck.

@@francescolavilla271 no, not at all, he uses assembly language in this book

@aternialaffsalot 3 года назад

I barely got through 10 pages of volume 1. It made me consider giving up programming and take up shopkeeping instead.

@porrapatcpe20 4 года назад

Thank you for this clip, and Bless HIM! I wish he can finished it! For me I just started reading volume 1. I will read(study) it more!

I started my journey with sorting - volume 3 every day i read a bit and feel blessed to be able to even find the text interesting and excited This is life’s work by Knuth

Lex, we are all greatful for your podcast. Can you bring on Dylan Beattie. He speaks about this very subject in his lectures.

Great podcasts.

Why does this video only have 2k views?? Even Bill Gates said if you think you know programming read this book...

@nicandromartinezsotelo3300 3 года назад

this book will make you cry. You can spend 3 hours reading it and you won't pass the first two pages

@avatar098 3 года назад

Nicandro Martínez Sotelo literally tried working through the first book during my PhD studies one summer. Barely made a dent.

@nicandromartinezsotelo3300 3 года назад

Oh WOW That comforts me a bit. It's been a month and a half and still can't get the second assignment. At least I'm not stupid

@WO_WO_WO_WO 3 года назад

This is good group therapy for me.

@evillbunny2 3 года назад

If you're struggling but still pushing forward, then you're doing it right. Knuth didn't lie when he said all you need is basic calc to make it through the books ...and yet he still finds ways to push you to and beyond your mental limits

I don't understand why people are struggling to understand the book ? I feel it's really easy to skim through the book it's very descriptive.

@louis9116 Год назад

It's hard to 1) actually sit down and solve the problems >2x lvl 2) understand intricacies of made up assembly language

@diogofelix8626 Год назад

Easy to skim, absolutely hard to do the exercises and tinker with the math, examples being on Assembly for a machine that Knuth created (MIX for volume 1-3, MMIX for 4A and 4B) doesn't help much as well, mind you, he started writing them well before the C Programming Language was mainstream.
