At the end of 1999, these books were named amongst the best twelve physical-science monographs of the century by American Scientist, along with: Dirac on breakthrough mechanics, Einstein on relativity, Mandelbrot on fractals, Pauling on the chemical bond, Russell and Whitehead on foundations of mathematics, von Neumann and Morgenstern on game theory, Wiener on cybernetics, Woodward and Hoffmann on orbital symmetry, Feynman on quantum electrodynamics, Smith on the search for construction, and Einstein'due south collected papers. Wow!

A free downloadable PDF containing the collected indexes is available from the publisher to registered owners of the four-volume boxed fix. This PDF likewise includes the complete indexes of Volumes ane, 2, iii, and 4A, as well as to Book i Fascicle i and to Volume 4 Fascicles 5 and 6.

eBook versions

These volumes are now available also in portable electronic form, using PDF format prepared by the experts at Mathematical Sciences Publishers. Special intendance has been taken to brand the search feature work well. Thousands of useful "clickable" cantankerous-references are also provided — from exercises to their answers and back, from the index to the text, from the text to important tables and figures, etc.

Warning: Unfortunately, however, not-PDF versions have also appeared, confronting my recommendations, and those versions are bluntly quite awful. A nifty deal of expertise and care is necessary to do the chore right. If you have been misled into purchasing one of these inferior versions (for example, a Kindle edition), the publishers take told me that they will replace your re-create with the PDF edition that I accept personally approved. Practise not purchase eTAOCP in Kindle format if you expect the mathematics to make sense. (The ePUB format may exist just as bad; I really don't want to know, and I am really sorry that information technology was released.) Please exercise non tell me nigh errors that yous find in a not-PDF eBook; such mistakes should be reported straight to the publisher. Some non-PDF versions also masquerade every bit PDF. You tin tell an authorized version because its copyright page (with the exception of Volume iv Fascicle 5) volition say 'Electronic version by Mathematical Sciences Publishers (MSP)'.

The authorized PDF versions tin can exist purchased at www.informit.com/taocp. If you lot have purchased a different version of the eBook, and tin provide proof of buy of that eBook, you can obtain a gratis PDF verson by sending e-mail and proof of buy to taocp@pearson.com.

Paperback Fascicles

New material for Volume 4 will first appear in beta-test form as fascicles of approximately 128 pages each, issued approximately twice per year. These fascicles will stand for my all-time attempt to write a comprehensive account; but estimator science has grown to the point where I cannot hope to be an say-so on all the material covered in these books. Therefore I'll need feedback from readers in order to ready the official volumes later.

For case, the following fascicles appeared before the hardcover edition of Book 4A was consummate.

I've put them online primarily so that experts in the field can check the contents before I inflict them on a wider audience. But if yous desire to help debug them, please go right ahead.

Volume five

Syntactic Algorithms, in preparation.

9. Lexical scanning (includes also string search and data pinch)
10. Parsing techniques

Estimated to exist ready in 2025.

Time to come plans

Every bit I continue to write Volumes 4 and 5, I'll need to refer to topics that vest logically in Volumes 1--iii simply weren't invented even so when I wrote those books. Instead of putting such textile artificially into Volumes 4 or 5, I'll put information technology into fascicle form. The first such fascicle is in fact ready at present (meet above): It describes MMIX, a RISC car that is used in Volume 4A; MMIX will likewise take the identify of MIX in all subsequent editions of Volumes one, 2, and 3.

Download the sixteen Feb 2004 version of Book 1 Fascicle one (583KB of compressed PostScript) (this old version is however no longer existence maintained; run across the errata below)

Afterwards Volume 5 has been completed, I will revise Volumes 1--iii again to bring them upwards to date. In item, the new cloth for those volumes that has been issued in beta-test fascicles will be incorporated at that time.

Then I will publish a "reader's assimilate" edition of Volumes ane--5, condensing the most of import material into a unmarried book.

And afterwards Volumes 1--five are done, God willing, I plan to publish Book vi (the theory of context-free languages) and Book 7 (Compiler techniques), but only if the things I want to say about those topics are however relevant and withal haven't been said. Volumes one--v represent the cardinal cadre of figurer programming for sequential machines; the subjects of Volumes 6 and 7 are important but more specialized.

Volumes 1--4A are available from the publisher, Addison-Wesley Publishing Company.

MIXware

The MIX reckoner will soon be replaced by a RISC auto called MMIX. Meanwhile if you want to try out the existing programs for the original 60s-era machine, you might be able to detect suitable software at the post-obit sites:

GNU's MIX Development Kit
JMixSim, an Os-independent assembler and simulator, by Christian Kandeler
MixIDE, another Bone-independent assembler and simulator, by Andrea Tettamanzi
MIXBuilder: an editor, assembler, simulator, and interactive debugger for Win32 platforms, past Bill Menees
EMIX: an expandable MIX emulator for the Win32 platform, by Daniel Andrade and Marcus Pereira
MIX/MIXAL in C with lex and CWEB documentation and a source debug facility, by Douglas Laing and Sergey Poznyakoff
David Smallberg's version that tin can be compiled for Linux
Dan Taflin's assembler and interactive simulator in HTML and Javascript
Andras Pahi'south updated version of Darius Bacon and Eric Raymond'south open-source load-and-go assembler and simulator, from The Retrocomputing Museum
John R. Ashmun's MIXware for the Be [Haiku] operating arrangement, with extended support for interrupts
Rutger van Bergen'south MIX emulator in .Internet/C#
Chaoji Li's MIX assembler and simulator, in Perl
Ruslan Batdalov's MIX emulator, in Scala, which allows execution both forwards and backwards
Michael Schröder'southward instructions for building a real MIX on a picayune fpga-board

(Please let me know of any other sites that I should add together to this list.)

The MMIX Supplement

Martin Ruckert has written an excellent 200-page companion to Volumes one, 2, and 3, intelligently translating all of the MIX programs into MMIX form. This booklet is jam-packed with instructive details and opportunities for self-education.

Errata et Addenda for Volume 1

The master changes betwixt the second and tertiary editions of Volume ane are listed in the Errata for Volume 1 (2nd ed.) (335K bytes of compressed PostScript, 80pp)---an archival file that is not being kept upwardly to engagement. But thousands of additional refinements announced in the third edition; you actually should enquire someone to get it for yous next Christmas.

The main changes to the third edition of Volume 1, made earlier the appearance of Volume 4A, are listed in the Early errata for Volume ane (3rd ed.) (258K bytes of compressed PostScript, 50pp), dated 08 January 2011.

Index to Algorithms and Theorems in Volume 1 (new in 2011) (14K bytes of compressed PostScript, 2pp)

There'south also a (much shorter, last updated 30 January 2022) list of changes since the 27th press was released in 2011, almost all of which have been made in more than recent printings:

Errata for Volume i (after 2010) (137K bytes of compressed PostScript, 18pp)
Errata for Volume ane (after 2010), long course (143K bytes of compressed PostScript, 20pp)
Errata for Volume 1 (after 2010), TeX form (66K bytes of raw TeX text)

Note: You tin can't run that TeX file through TeX; it imports all kinds of other files that are private. Just if you have no way to expect at compressed PostScript files, you might endeavor reading the TeX code as a concluding resort; at least you'll be able to figure out the folio numbers on which corrections accept been fabricated.

And there's also a list of changes to Volume ane Fascicle one, final updated 06 May 2021:

Errata for Volume 1 Fascicle 1 (84K bytes of compressed PostScript, 11pp)
Errata for Volume ane Fascicle ane, long form (89K bytes of compressed PostScript, 12pp)
Errata for Book 1 Fascicle one, TeX form (37K bytes of raw TeX text)

Annotation: An unknown number of badly printed copies of Volume one Fascicle 1 were printed by fault. Among other defects, the copyright page has incredibly poor resolution, and the MMIX summary chart has been omitted from the within dorsum cover. If you have purchased one of these monstrosities, the publishers assure me that they volition replace your re-create with a good one.

Errata et Addenda for Book ii

The main changes between the second and third editions of Book 2 are listed in the Errata for Volume 2 (second ed.) (555K bytes of compressed PostScript, 142pp)---an archival file that is not existence kept up to engagement. But thousands of additional refinements announced in the 3rd edition; y'all actually should ask someone to get it for you next Christmas.

The main changes to the third edition of Book 2, made earlier the advent of Book 4A, are listed in the Early on errata for Book 2 (third ed.) (232K bytes of compressed PostScript, 50pp), dated 08 Jan 2011.

Index to Algorithms and Theorems in Volume 2 (new in 2011) (14K bytes of compressed PostScript, 2pp)

There's also a (much shorter, last updated 30 January 2022) list of changes since the 26th printing was released in 2011, most all of which accept been made in more recent printings:
