Browsed read Chapter 28, matrix multiplication and Chapter 29, linear programming. Both of these topics are deeper than a chapter. Though CLRS description is probably deeper than an usual programming book . It is also complete in the sense that it solves the major problem in those two domains.
Both of these two chapters have many practical applications. This is a bit unlike the other chapters : I don't think I will ever use algorithms in number theory, computational geometry and integer multiplication.
A meaningful browse read is to build/re-build connections between seemingly unrelated concepts. Currently, I feel satisfied with that level of understanding. As each of the advanced topic is probably a book, I won't push myself too much to really digest them.
