Computer programming is hard to learn. Being a skillful programmer requires imagination, anticipation, knowledge in algorithmics, the mastery of a programming language, and above all, experience, as difficulties are often hidden in details. This book synthesises our experience as teachers and programmers.
The programming style is essential. Given a programming language, the same algorithm can be written in multiple ways, and some of them can be both elegant and efficient. This is what the programmer must seek at all costs and the reason why we choose a programming language for this book rather than pseudo-code. Our choice is OCaml.
This book is organised into three parts. The first one introduces OCaml and targets beginners, whether they're programming beginners or simply new to OCaml. Through small programs, the reader is introduced to fundamental concepts of programming and of OCaml. The second and third parts are dedicated to fundamental concepts of algorithmics and should allow the reader to write programs in a structured and efficient way. Algorithmic concepts are directly presented in the syntax of OCaml and any code snippet from the book is available online.
