Each chapter begins with the basics and is standalone; the dependence of the chapters on previous concepts has been minimized. The text is aimed to balance the mix of notation and words in mathematical statements. Artificial Intelligence and Soft Computing topics are often expressed in terms of algorithms, hence key algorithms are introduced with their explanations. These algorithms are expressed in words and in an easy to understand form of structured psuedocodes. The students should easily grasp the psuedocodes used in the text to express the algorithms, regardless of whether they have formally studied programming languages. KEY FEATURES • Short and concise explanation with examples. • Direct and pragmatic writing style. • Structured psuedocodes for explaining algorithms. • Balanced mix of notation and words in mathematical statements. • Meticulously organised chapter for effective teaching and learning. • Chapter-end Exercises to help students practice and assess their knowledge.
