Алгоритмы. Руководство по разработке

The book covers a wide range of algorithms, but I wonder what criteria was used to select the ones emphasized. Was it based on their practical importance or historical significance?

The practical applications made the concepts clearer for me, but I’m curious if others felt they connected well to their own programming projects.

It seemed like a shift from theory to more applied problem-solving strategies — I wonder what led to that structure.
