Data structures and algorithms is a fundamental course in Computer Science, which enables learners across any discipline to develop the much-needed foundation of efficient programming, leading to better problem solving in their respective disciplines. A Textbook of Data Structures and Algorithms is a textbook that can be used as course material in classrooms, or as self-learning material. The book targets novice learners aspiring to acquire advanced knowledge of the topic. Therefore, the content of the book has been pragmatically structured across three volumes and kept comprehensive enough to help them in their progression from novice to expert. With this in mind, the book details concepts, techniques and applications pertaining to data structures and algorithms, independent of any programming language. It includes 181 illustrative problems and 276 review questions to reinforce a theoretical understanding and presents a suggestive list of 108 programming assignments to aid in the implementation of the methods covered.

Learn Data Structures and Algorithms! This book is a collection of lectures notes on Data Structures and Algorithms. The content found in this book supplements the free video lecture series, of the same name, "Advanced Data Structures", by the author, Dr. Daniel Page. This video lecture series is available at http://www.pagewizardgames.com/datastructures. This book: -Contains Computer Science topics and materials comparable to those found among university courses at a similar level (second-year) at top Canadian universities. -Provides an accessible written companion and supplemental notes for those that wish to learn the subject of Data Structures and Algorithms from the video lecture series, but have difficulties taking notes, or would prefer having a written alternative to follow along. This book is ideal for those with already an introductory programming background, know a little bit about computing, and wish to learn more about Data Structures and Algorithms and begin a more formal study of Computer Science. The materials here are a great place to start for supplemental/additional learning materials on the subject for self-study, university students, or those that want to learn more about Computer Science. Dr. Daniel Page places great emphasis on the introductory mathematical aspects of Computer Science, a natural transition from a basic programming background to thinking a bit more like a computer scientist about Computer Science. This book is not a textbook. The author assumes the reader is familiar with algebra, functions, common finite and infinite series such as arithmetic series and geometric series, and basic control structures in programming or logic. All the algorithms in this book are described in English, or using Java-like pseudocode.

Using only practically useful techniques, this book teaches methods for organizing, reorganizing, exploring, and retrieving data in digital computers, and the mathematical analysis of those techniques. The authors present analyses that are relatively brief and non-technical but illuminate the important performance characteristics of the algorithms. Data Structures and Their Algorithms covers algorithms, not the expression of algorithms in the syntax of particular programming languages. The authors have adopted a pseudocode notation that is readily understandable to programmers but has a simple syntax.

The design and analysis of efficient data structures has long been recognized as a key component of the Computer Science curriculum. Goodrich, Tomassia and Goldwasser's approach to this classic topic is based on the object-oriented paradigm as the framework of choice for the design of data structures. For each ADT presented in the text, the authors provide an associated Java interface. Concrete data structures realizing the ADTs are provided as Java classes implementing the interfaces. The Java code implementing fundamental data structures in this book is organized in a single Java package, net.datastructures. This package forms a coherent library of data structures and algorithms in Java specifically designed for educational purposes in a way that is complimentary with the Java Collections Framework.

All young computer scientists who aspire to write programs must learn something about algorithms and data structures. This book does exactly that. Based on lecture courses developed by the author over a number of years the book is written in an informal and friendly way specifically to appeal to students. The book is divided into four parts: the first on Data Structures introduces a variety of structures and the fundamental operations associated with them, together with descriptions of how they are implemented in Pascal; the second discusses algorithms and the notion of complexity; Part III is concerned with the description of successively more elaborate structures for the storage of records and algorithms for retrieving a record from such a structure by means of its key; and finally, Part IV consists of very full solutions to nearly all the exercises in the book.
