Source code repository accompanying the book 'Classic Computer Computer Science Problems in Python' by David Kopec, containing chapter-by-chapter Python 3.7 implementations of classic computer science problems such as search, constraint-satisfaction, genetic algorithms, neural networks, and adversarial game-playing. It is a learning companion rather than a production library, with each code listing in the book mapped to a corresponding file in the repository.

Use cases

  • learning classic computer science algorithms in Python
  • study companion for the Classic Computer Science Problems book
  • example implementations of constraint-satisfaction problems
  • reference code for genetic algorithms and neural networks from scratch
  • teaching materials for introductory algorithms and data structures
  • practicing Python 3.7 features like data classes and type hints

When to choose

  • you are reading the book and want the matching source code organized by chapter
  • you want small, readable, from-scratch implementations of classic algorithms for learning
  • you are an educator looking for clean example code for teaching CS concepts
  • you want to see Python 3.7 features like data classes and advanced type hints applied

When to avoid

  • you need production-ready, optimized, or maintained algorithm libraries
  • you want a pip-installable package with a stable API
  • you are not following the book and need standalone, documented algorithm implementations
  • you require support for Python versions earlier than 3.7
