Knuth: /ka�nooth�/, n.

[Donald E. Knuth's The Art of Computer Programming] Mythically, the reference that answers all questions about data structures or algorithms. A safe answer when you do not know: “I think you can find that in Knuth.” Contrast the literature. See also bible. There is a Donald Knuth home page at http://Sunburn.Stanford.EDU/~knuth/.
