No, the image is that you own CLRS. Cracking the Coding Interview is to the programmer image as Cliffs Notes are to the Shakespeare nerd image.



I feel like owning a print copy of CLRS just implies that you studied Computer Science at a university, not necessarily that you're some super gifted hacker. But then again, most people who own print copies of Shakespeare are probably not uber-Shakespeare nerds, but took some English Lit courses.
