THE C ALGORITHM COMPENDIUM: 300 Practical Programs for Graphics & Games, File System, Networking, Data Processing, Artificial Intelligence, Compression, Cryptography, and Embedded Systems

300 Practical Programs for Advanced Mathematical Computations, Data Structures Algorithms, Graphics & Games, File System, Networking, Data Processing, Artificial Intelligence, Compression, Cryptography, and Embedded Systems. Master C Programming Through 300 Hands-On Practical Programs This comprehensive guide takes you from fundamental concepts to advanced implementations across ten major domains of computer science and embedded systems. Each program is complete, ready-to-run, and thoroughly documented with problem statements and code. What You'll Learn Advanced Mathematical Computations (30 programs) Implement matrix exponentiation for Fibonacci numbers, solve systems of equations with Gaussian elimination, perform Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), compute numerical integration using Monte Carlo methods, and tackle eigenvalue problems with the power method. Data Structures & Algorithms (30 programs) Build AVL trees, Red-Black trees, and B-trees. Implement segment trees, Fenwick trees, and disjoint set union (Union-Find). Master string algorithms including KMP, Rabin-Karp, Boyer-Moore, and Aho-Corasick. Solve graph problems with Dijkstra, Bellman-Ford, Floyd-Warshall, Prim, and Kruskal algorithms. Graphics & Games (30 programs) Create classic games including Pong, Space Invaders, Flappy Bird, and 2048. Generate fractals (Mandelbrot set, Julia set, Sierpinski triangle), particle systems, and terrain using Perlin noise. Build a Sudoku solver, Chess Knight Tour, and N-Queens visualizer. File System & I/O (30 programs) Implement file encryption with password protection, directory monitoring, file splitting and merging, binary file editing, duplicate file finders, log rotators, CSV processors, and file compression with RLE. Networking (30 programs) Build HTTP clients and servers, port scanners, DNS lookup tools, FTP clients, multi-client chat servers, proxy servers, network packet sniffers, WebSocket servers, and load balancer simulators. Data Management (30 programs) Create a relational database, B+ trees, hash tables with chaining, Bloom filters, LRU caches, time series databases, LZW compression, and data pipelines with extract-transform-load (ETL) stages. Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning (30 programs) Implement perceptrons, multi-layer neural networks with backpropagation (XOR problem), genetic algorithms, decision trees (ID3), random forests, K-means clustering, K-nearest neighbors, Naive Bayes, linear and logistic regression, Q-learning for reinforcement learning, and A* pathfinding. Compression & Encoding (30 programs) Master Huffman coding, LZW compression, arithmetic coding, Burrows-Wheeler Transform (BWT), run-length encoding (RLE), Base64, Elias coding, Golomb coding, and LZ77/LZ78. Cryptography & Security (30 programs) Implement AES-128 encryption, RSA key generation and encryption, SHA-256 hash, HMAC, PBKDF2 key derivation, Diffie-Hellman key exchange, Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), digital signatures (ECDSA), and zero-knowledge proofs. Embedded Systems & Hardware (30 programs) Simulate GPIO control, UART serial communication, I2C and SPI protocols, PWM generation, ADC reading, timers/counters, interrupt controllers (NVIC), DMA controllers, watchdog timers, CAN bus protocol, RTC with alarms, stepper motor control, and RTOS task scheduling.
