title:: Books/The Art of Computer Programming Vol 1 - book is history of ideas that come into compute programming - Concepts - Dewey Decimal Notation - “Dewey decimal notation applies to any forest: The root of the kth tree in the forest is given number k; and if α is the number of any node of degree m, its children are numbered α.1, α.2, ..., α.m. The Dewey decimal notation satisfies many simple mathematical properties, and it is a useful tool in the analysis of trees. ” - Excerpt From Art of Computer Programming, The Donald E.
