The author would do himself a great service if he chooses some other resource for learning algorithms.
CLRS isn't bad. It is meant for a reference, and it also assumes that you are taking the course in college with an instructor teaching you.
There are other great resources out there.
Two I recommend are:
- Algorithms, Coursera (Sedgewick, Wayne)
- The Algorithm Design Manual (Skiena)
I have recommended self-taught programmers in the past, which all of them liked:
- A Common Sense Guide to Data Structures and Algorithms, PragProg (Jay Wengrow)
- Algorithms Illumited, book or Coursera MOOC (Tim Rougharden)
