Witold Lipski

It's a Pi Day today!

I thought it's fitting to post about Witold Lipski. In his short life (36 years) he managed to leave an impressive body of work. I love his monograph on combinatorics. It was printed in Soviet Union under title "Комбинаторика для программистов". It came with Pascal code and contained a wide range of algorithms. It's written clearly and very "applied" in style.
