Nine revolutionary algorithms that power our computers and smartphones

Every day, we use our computers to perform remarkable feats. A simple web search picks out a handful of relevant needles from the world's biggest haystack. Uploading a photo to Facebook transmits millions of pieces of information over numerous error-prone network links, yet somehow a perfect copy of the photo arrives intact. Without even knowing it, we use public-key cryptography to transmit secret information like credit card numbers, and we use digital signatures to verify the identity of the websites we visit. How do our computers perform these tasks with such ease? John MacCormick answers this question in language anyone can understand, using vivid examples to explain the fundamental tricks behind nine computer algorithms that power our PCs, tablets, and smartphones.

Works Great!
Size: 3.3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I absolutely love the soap. It lathers really well so a little goes a long way. Will definitely last a while. The smell is amazing. My husband thinks that I smell like a bowl of oatmeal. Feels really amazing on the skin. I wish it hydrated a little more because I also pair it with the lotion and it works wonders. Definitely works for the price you pay. I love that there are no harmful ingredients that leave my skin burning like most soaps.

Great Product but EXPENSIVE
Size: 3.3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is a great product, but I definitely think it’s over priced. The bars don’t last long and neither do the moisturizers. I don’t understand why they only sell small containers and small bars. But it smells great, and works best when you shower with exfoliating cloth or loofah in lukewarm to cool water (hot water makes dry skin conditions worse. Try to leave skin a bit damp before adding the moisturizer, the results improve at that point.
