Status 20110606(a)

Finished P3.3.  I have thought through the problem so it is not that difficult.  Also updated Fuzzy Reading pointer to Chapter 15. I read Chapter14 but it seems to be very specific to red-black tree. Probably one of the toughest subject in the book.

Fuzzy Read till Chapter 15.   The part about Red-Black Tree is a little bit too tough to absorb in one shot.  So I decide to work on it later. DP, greedy algorithm happen to be used in my work a lot.  So Chapter 15 and 16 will likely give me a break. What I want to focus though is the underlying theory of these material.   CLRS is likely the best text book out there which talks about these stuffs.  (Or we have to wait till the whole V4 and V5 of TAOCP to be published......)

This reminds me, may be I should buy a copy of TAOCP V4 soon.

Fuzzy reading: 339/1144 (Until the beginning of Chapter 15 for 2nd Edition.)
