Hello All

I am someone who graduated some time back and was not able to score their first job in the field. I am recently getting back into programming a bit more as a hobby. In particular I am toying around with Rust and a bit of C#.

Was wondering what books you all used for data and algo class? It would be good if you know some with those languages in mind, but otherwise just a book that is more generic would be great too.

Depends on what you're doing, programming wise. Structures and Algos is good if you're doing a lot of foundational, ground-up work.

True. I guess to be a bit more clear its a bit more for its own sake to built the brain muscle of sorts.

Thank you for the links. I do love a yummy textbook.
