==Editions==

The first edition of the textbook did not include Stein as an author, and thus the book became known by the initialism CLR. It included two chapters ("Arithmetic Circuits" & "Algorithms for Parallel Computers") that were dropped in the second edition. After the addition of the fourth author in the second edition, many began to refer to the book as "CLRS". This first edition of the book was also known as "The Big White Book (of Algorithms)." With the second edition, the predominant color of the [[Book cover|cover]] changed to green, causing the [[nickname]] to be shortened to just "The Big Book (of Algorithms)."<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.csd.uwo.ca/~jamie/.Refs/tech-books.html |title=V-Business Card |website=www.csd.uwo.ca}}</ref> The third edition was published in August 2009.
