A collection of notes and solutions created for Algorithms, 4th ed. by Robert Sedgewick and Kevin Wayne

The output for all code can be run with the newest version of node (tested on v6.9.3), which supports ES2015 syntax. For older versions, transpilation using a Babel watcher or using babel-node is required. To run the code, simply execute node [filename] in the /src directory.

The notes were written for personal benefit and reference and were intended neither as a substitute for the book nor a comprehensive reference. They are included here for completeness and can be accessed through the /notes directory or via the Table of Contents.
