Hm. Sedgwick is (very) good for the algorithms. But I'm not too happy
about the C. Looks too much like literally translated Pascal.

Oh, it's progress! It is probably in the backward direction though. ;-)
IMHO, C++ is probably a bit too complicated, but that seems to be one of
the steps of 'progress'. The next step then tends to be development of
something less complicated that does most of the things the previous stage
can do. Java might qualify for that -- but I haven't yet looked closely at
it.
