Can any one suggest a book on data structures and algorithms that a programmer needs to cover.

A:
Algorithms is a pretty good one.
Introduction to Algorithms is also good.

you really only need the introduction to algorithms, as far as I'm concerned.

ItA is a very good comprehensive reference, but Algorithms is a nicer read (imho). ItA does great when you have someone to walk you through it.

I'm walking myself through ItA right now. It's a very nice read.

A:
I'm not sure about "A programmer needs to cover". It depends on what kind of programmer.
Anyway, if you're serious into algorithms:
The greatest:
- MIT - Introduction to Algorithms 3Ed 2009
- Springer - The Algorithm Design Manual 2008
- CRC - Algorithms and Theory of Computation Handbook 2Ed 2009
- Springer - Encyclopedia of Algorithms 2008
If you are looking for more basic books:
