Product Description
Book Description
Sahni's DATA STRUCTURES,ALGORITHMS, and APPLICATIONS in JAVA is designed to be used in a second course in computer science (CS2). Using Java, this book provides comprehensive coverage of the fundamental data structures, making it an excellent choice for a CS2 course. The author has made this book student-friendly through intuitive discussion, real-world, applications and a gentle introduction.
Sahni is unique in providing several real-world applications for each data structure presented in the book. These applications come from such areas as Sorting, compression and coding, and image processing. These applications give students a flavor for the sorts of things they will be able to do with the data structures that they are learning.
Almost 1,000 exercises in this text serve to reinforce concepts and get students applying what they are learning. Sahni's text is also accompanied by a web site containing all the programs in the book, as well as sample data, generated output, solutions to selected exercises, and enhanced discussion of selected material in the text.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A beautiful book!!,
By Shantanu Shekhar (Chicago) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Data Structures, Algorithms, and Applications in Java (Hardcover)
I have worked with Dr.Sahni and taken two classes with him at University of Florida (undergraduate and graduate DataStructures). Needless to say the guy is a LIVING LEGEND in the field of datastructures and algorithms. Like I said I have used this same book for "Intro to datastructures" and I do admit that it requires a little effort to get the hang of it, but once you get hooked on to it you will see how simple and elegant the guy's code and language is (english I mean). I haven't seen a single line of ambiguity in this whole book. He writes exactly what he means in the most terse and simple language. That is why it might be a little dry to some people. Read every chapter twice if you have to, but do not leave this book to gather dust. That will do you a lot of harm. I can bet once you are done reading this book you will be writing much efficient and clean code. This is the kind of book that makes a software engineer out of a programmer.

SUFFIX TREES,

This review is from: Data Structures, Algorithms, and Applications in Java (Hardcover)
I saw an presentation of suffix trees online by Dr Sahni.Does anyone know if any of his books contain similar material, that is, in depth material on suffix trees? Thanks.

Unhelpful and Hard to follow,
By
This review is from: Data Structures, Algorithms, and Applications in Java (Hardcover)
I feel that this book is horrible and unhelpful in understanding Data Structures. I am a poor UF student forced to use the book since it is written by the teacher. Many examples are hard to follow and some exercises are impossible to understand. Sahni's codes and examples are not as magnificent as everyone may say they are. Many of the classes are hard to follow because of poor use of names and documentation(Some classes don't even have API documentation).This book clearly needs revision.
