Hello,

i needed suggestions regarding the book "Art of Computer Programming" by Donald E Knuth.
im an undergraduate Computer Science student.

i would like to know more about the book before i buy it. So, any reviews?
Reviews as to how the Math in it is(i heard there are a lot of Mathematical proofs in it)

Any kind of reviews/suggestions would be helpful.


PS: Sorry for posting this in the C forum(the topic might be a little irrelevant).

Thanks.

FYI, TAOCP consists of several volumes, and it's concentrated awesome. If I could only keep one of my books (I have many), it would be TAOCP (probably volume 3).

Intense, but if you're not a math head you can still get a lot out of the books.
