Product Details


Product Description

Book Description

This book is an all-inclusive presentation introduces the data structures (and their algorithms) that comprise the foundation of software engineering. Designed to show students at the sophomore level the connection between a programming approach and mathematical theory, the text focuses on practical techniques for students to master data structures and efficient algorithm implementation. Other topics pertinent to programmers also receive coverage. Chapter-ending problems and references give students a helpful review and solidify chapter concepts.

Features

Uses only practically useful techniques
Includes both classical and recently discovered methods, relying on inherent simplicity, wide applicability, and potential usefulness as the criteria for inclusion rather than any preconceived exhaustive catalog
Presents analyses that are relatively brief and non technical but illuminate the important performance characteristics of the algorithms
Covers algorithms, not the expression of algorithms in the syntax of particular programming languages. Authors have adopted a pseudocode notation that is readily understandable to programmers but has a simple syntax.

This review is from: Data Structures and Their Algorithms (Paperback)
This is one of the 2 texts we've had for our data structures course. I'm not sure what the other book is, because this one was so good. It covered the material in a clear and precise way. I even have a copy of this book today, for further reference!

5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite data structures and algorithms book, May 8 2000
This review is from: Data Structures and Their Algorithms (Paperback)
This is my favorite data structures and algorithms book for three reasons. First, this book is well written and easy to read, and that's not always the case for a book like this. Second, it's concise, small, and easy to carry. I'm a consultant who changes assignments often and convenience can be important. And third, the text book problems at the end of each chapter are very interesting and always stretch the mind. There's even a final chapter called Engineering with Data Structures that contains lots of fun computational problems for a rainy afternoon. If you love programming, you'll love this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great introduction to the subject, wonderful teaching.., Mar 8 2000
This review is from: Data Structures and Their Algorithms (Paperback)
I seriously like this book. It's explaining is close to crystal clear to me when I read it, and the algorithms listed (in pseudo-code) take it to a practical level.
