The Art of Computer Programming, Volume 4, Fascicle 2: Generating All Tuples and Permutations At last, an answer to one of the most asked questions in computer science: when is Volume 4 of The Art of Computer Programming publishing?

The first look at the eagerly anticipated Volume 4 of The Art of Computer Programming

The definitive examination of the under-utilized, but surprisingly rich field of n-tuple generation and permutation

Future classic material from one of the most famous names in computer science!

According to Webster's Dictionary, a fascicle is "one of the division of a book published in parts." This material represents a first look at material from the long-anticipated and much-discussed Volume 4 of Donald Knuth's The Art of Computer Programming. Knuth's fascicle philosophy is as follows: "The material will first appear in betatest form as fascicles of approximately 128 pages each, issued approximately twice per year. These fascicles will represent my best attempt to write a comprehensive account, but computer science has grown to the point where I cannot hope to be an authority on all the material covered in these books. Therefore I'll need feedback from readers in order to prepare the official volumes later." Product Description
Finally, after a wait of more than thirty-five years, the first part of Volume 4 is at last ready for publication. Check out the boxed set that brings together Volumes 1 - 4A in one elegant case, and offers the purchaser a $50 discount off the price of buying the four volumes individually.

Art of Computer Programming, Volume 4, Fascicle 2, The: Generating All Tuples and Permutations: Generating All Tuples and Permutations

This multivolume work on the analysis of algorithms has long been recognized as the definitive description of classical computer science. The three complete volumes published to date already comprise a unique and invaluable resource in programming theory and practice. Countless readers have spoken about the profound personal influence of Knuth's writings. Scientists have marveled at the beauty and elegance of his analysis, while practicing programmers have successfully applied his cookbook solutions to their day-to-day problems. All have admired Knuth for the breadth, clarity, accuracy, and good humor found in his books.

To begin the fourth and later volumes of the set, and to update parts of the existing three, Knuth has created a series of small books called fascicles, which will be published t regular intervals. Each fascicle will encompass a section or more of wholly new or evised material. Ultimately, the content of these fascicles will be rolled up into the comprehensive, final versions of each volume, and the enormous undertaking that began in 1962 will be complete.

Volume 4, Fascicle 2 This fascicle inaugurates the eagerly awaited publication of Knuth's The Art of Computer Programming, Volume 4: Combinatorial Algorithms. Part of what will be a long chapter on combinatorial searching, the fascicle begins his treatment of how to generate all possibilities. Specifically, it discusses the generation of all n-tuples, then extends those ideas to all permutations. Such algorithms provide a natural motivation by means of which many of the key ideas of combinatorial mathematics can be introduced and explored. In this and other fascicles of Volume 4, Knuth illuminates important theories by discussing related games and puzzles. Even serious programming can be fun.
