Multilanguage projects
I don't think a CS text book is the right place to discuss multilanguage projects. CS is about more abstract programming aspects than language bindings. 192.160.6.253 16:25, 28 July 2005 (UTC)


 * I'll say that that section did seem a little out of place. But perhaps there are specific algorithms behind it that the author wanted to cover? This one book is in such an early stage that we should probably be less conservative than with something closer to being complete. (I'm still waiting for the flood of suggestions and further chapters to be suggested.) MShonle 20:23, 28 July 2005 (UTC)


 * I'd have to agree with the first guy, mutilanguage projects just move the algorithm to a separate language. Rarely (if ever) do algorithms get passed between languages.--Dragontamer 10:22, 11 August 2005 (UTC)


 * OK, seems like it can be removed. MShonle 14:07, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

Thoughts from a wiki newbie
I am a retired CS professor who taught an advanced algorithms course for many years. I think I would enjoy contributing to this book, but thought I should test the waters before jumping in. My interest is in graph algorithms of all sorts, but with a focus on classic network optimization problems ranging from minimum spanning tree to network flow and graph matching. The simpler algorithms for some of these problems could appear in the Algorithms book, rather than the Advanced book, but there are some more sophisticated algorithms for these problems that would make more sense in the Advanced book. Is this an appropriate direction in which to take this book? Jonturner53 (discuss • contribs) 19:37, 17 June 2021 (UTC)
