The Art of Computer Programming (TAOCP)

Introduction

Written by Donald E. Knuth, this great book is all about computer programming. I can only say, every aspiring programmer should read this great book. The following is an excerpt from the Stanford University website.

At the end of 1999, these books were named among the best twelve physical-science monographs of the century by American Scientist, along with: Dirac on quantum mechanics, Einstein on relativity, Mandelbrot on fractals, Pauling on the chemical bond, Russell and Whitehead on foundations of mathematics, von Neumann and Morgenstern on game theory, Wiener on cybernetics, Woodward and Hoffmann on orbital symmetry, Feynman on quantum electrodynamics, Smith on the search for structure, and Einstein's collected papers. Wow!
