A free open-source book (written in TeX) that serves as a modern introduction to competitive programming, covering algorithm design techniques and programming tricks. It is paired with the CSES Problem Set for practice.
Use cases
- learn competitive programming from scratch
- study algorithm design techniques for contests
- prepare for programming olympiads like IOI or ICPC
- find practice problems to accompany an algorithms book
- review data structures and algorithms before interviews
- self-study algorithms with a free textbook
When to choose
- you want a free, well-regarded introduction to competitive programming
- you are preparing for algorithmic contests and need technique coverage
- you want a book paired with a large problem set (CSES) for practice
When to avoid
- you need a general software engineering or production coding guide
- you want interactive coding exercises inside the book itself
- you need a formal academic algorithms textbook with proofs
