You are about to embark on the study of a fascinating and important subject: the
theory of computation. It comprises the fundamental mathematical properties of
computer hardware, software, and certain applications thereof. In studying this
subject we seek to determine what can and cannot be computed, how quickly,
with how much memory,...
Computational geometry concerns itself with designing and analyzing algorithms for solving geometric problems. The field has reached a high level of sophistication, and very complicated algorithms have been designed. However, it is also useful to develop more practical algorithms, so long as they are based on rigorous methods. One such method...

To explain the perspective from which this book was written, it will be helpful to define
the terms machine learning and hackers.
What is machine learning? At the highest level of abstraction, we can think of machine
learning as a set of tools and methods that attempt to infer patterns and extract insight
from a record of the...
