The absolute first thing you should do is read the first few chapters from the first volume. They go over basic stuff, including MIX [supposedly there's a new version with MMIX, though I havent seen it yet] which is the model Knuth uses throughout the series
I'm a math guy, so I found the second volume [dealing with "seminumerical" algorithms -- called so because Knuth felt that it wasnt strictly numerical] much more interesting than the sorting and searching stuff [V3]

TAOCP 第一卷包含以下图表：
The first volume of TAOCP contained this diagram:
您应该做的第一件事绝对是阅读第一卷的前几章。他们讨论了基本的东西，包括 MIX [据说有一个 MMIX 的新版本，虽然我还没有看到它]，这是 Knuth 在整个系列中使用的模型，
我是一个数学专家，所以我找到了第二卷 [处理“半数字”算法——之所以这样称呼，是因为 Knuth 认为它不是严格意义上的数字]比排序和搜索的东西有趣得多 [V3]
