Pages 95-96. The variables Y and Yi, whose codomain is {H, T}, violate the definition of a random variable on page 1106, which requires the codomain to be the real numbers.

Page 95, lines 7-10. Change ``Our sample space is S = {H, T}, and we define a random variable Y which takes on the values H and T, each with probability 1/2. We can then define an indicator random variable XH, associated with the coin coming up heads, which we can express as the event Y = H.'' to ``Our sample space is S = {H, T}, with Pr{H} = Pr{T} = 1/2.

The PARTITION procedure puts all elements equal to the pivot into the same partition. Therefore, if many elements equal the pivot, the partitions are unbalanced, and the average-case analyses of quicksort and selection in expected linear time are incorrect. There are several changes in order to explicitly state the assumption that elements are distinct:
Page 145, line 15. Change ``and in O(n lg n) time on average.'' to ``and, assuming distinct elements, in O(n lg n) time on average.''
Page 156, line 10. Change ``and then using this understanding to derive an O(n lg n) bound on the expected running time.'' to ``and then using this understanding to derive an O(n lg n) bound on the expected running time (assuming that the values of the elements are distinct).''

Pages 375-378. As written, the procedure RECURSIVE-ACTIVITY-SELECTOR is flawed, in that it works only when j = n+1. It so happens that in the initial call and all recursive calls, j does equal n+1, but for general values of j, the statement on page 375, lines 4-5 from the bottom, ``It returns a maximum-size subset of mutually compatible activities in Sij'' does not hold. The best remedy is to rewrite the procedure so that the fourth parameter is always n, and have it return a maximum-size subset of mutually compatible activities in Si,n+1. Pages 375-378 have been rewritten to accommodate this change. You can get the updated pages in either PostScript or PDF. Note: these updated pages were changed on 12 February 2002.

Page 495, proof of Lemma 20.3. The first paragraph of the proof does not make it clear that z may be in any Fibonacci heap. There is no need to give a value for s2, since it is not needed anywhere. The lower bound for size(x) should not be in terms of x's children, since we do not know that size(x) = sk. Change the first paragraph of the proof, up to the first math display, to ``Let sk denote the minimum possible size of any node of degree k in any Fibonacci heap. Trivially, s0 = 1 and s1 = 2. The number sk is at most size(x) and, because adding children to a node cannot decrease the node's size, the value of sk increases monotonically with k. Consider some node z, in any Fibonacci heap, such that degree[z] = k and size(z) = sk. Because sk ≤ size(x), we compute a lower bound on size(x) by computing a lower bound on sk. As in Lemma 20.1, let y1, y2, ..., yk denote the children of z in the order in which they were linked to z. To bound sk, we count one for z itself and one for the first child y1 (for which size(y1) ≥ 1), giving''. Also, in the second line of the display that follows, change ``='' to ``≥''.

Pages 823-827. There are several passages related to degree-bounds that need to be changed. The problem is that one cannot precisely refer to the degree-bound of a polynomial, since for a degree-n polynomial, any integer greater than n is a degree-bound. Make the following changes:
Page 823, lines 1-6 from the bottom. Change these lines to ``Note that degree(C) = degree(A) + degree(B), implying that if A is a polynomial of degree-bound na and B is a polynomial of degree-bound nb, then C is a a polynomial of degree-bound na + nb - 1. Since a polynomial of degree-bound k is also a polynomial of degree-bound k+1, we will normally say that the product polynomial C is a polynomial of degree-bound na + nb.''
Page 825, lines 7-9 from the bottom. Change the last sentence before Theorem 30.1 to ``The following theorem shows that interpolation is well defined when the desired interpolating polynomial must have a degree-bound equal to the given number of point-value pairs.''
Page 827, lines 11-16. Change the three sentences beginning on line 11 to ``We must face the problem, however, that degree(C) = degree(A) + degree(B); if A and B are of degree-bound n, then C is of degree-bound 2n. A standard point-value representation for A and B consists of n point-value pairs for each polynomial. Multiplying these together gives us n point-value pairs, but we need 2n pairs to interpolate a unique polynomial C of degree-bound 2n.''
