Good for Beginners
Gook book to cover the basics for beginners but would be even better if there were more advanced examples and explanations covered

Clear as Day
DISCLAIMER: Got the book today (10/19/2021) and got 4 chapters in. I had been waiting for a book like this from a writer like Cory. I'm a fan of his previous work but this book is special to me. Read on... I am a self taught data engineer and I always felt lacking in the topics this book covers. When I finish the book I will update the review. For now, if you're on the fence... Give him your money. The code sections are well written and simple to understand. I really love the way he lays things out where he shows how to write an algorithm such as a search tree but also explains how to do the same thing using methods or imported libraries. The concepts are straightforward to follow and I feel as if I can get to work and directly apply his theory to my prod code. Very grateful for his work.

Best book ive read so far on Data Structures and Algorithms
I've been looking through countless youtube videos and websites trying to figure out how to better comprehend data structures & algorithms. The explanations in this book are concise and paint a picture so you vividly remember each term and what each term looks like physically. It's a 10/10 will be buying his other books as well.
