Clever Algorithms: Nature-Inspired Programming Recipes
I like how none of the comments actually have anything to do with the post, however at the time of this writing it's up to 113 points.  I understand that links to the original discussion were posted, however if you're aware of those, why are you upvoting _this_ thread?  Does anyone actually peruse the content they're upvoting these days?<p>I thought the author did good job collecting these algorithms, and certainly can't be faulted for releasing it for free.  Now as the style/usefulness/code quality goes... I feel less warm and fuzzy.  I'll definitely keep this book lying around and have enjoyed reading through it from time to time, but calling it a 'book' proper seems a bit of a stretch, to me.<p>Once again... thanks author. Great reference, and etc... just .... y'kno.
