The classic data structure textbook provides a comprehensive and technically rigorous introduction to data structures such as arrays, stacks, queues, linked lists, trees and graphs, and techniques such as sorting hashing that form the basis of all software. In addition, it presents advanced of specialized data structures such as priority queues, efficient binary search trees, multiway search trees and digital search structures. The book now discusses topics such as weight biased leftist trees, pairing heaps, symmetric min-max heaps, interval heaps, top-down splay trees, B+ trees and suffix trees. Red-black trees have been made more accessible. The section on multiway tries has been significantly expanded and several trie variations and their application to Interner packet forwarding have been disused.
This second edition of Data Structures Using C has been developed to provide a comprehensive and consistent coverage of both the abstract concepts of data structures as well as the implementation of these concepts using C language. It begins with a thorough overview of the concepts of C programming followed by introduction of different data structures and methods to analyse the complexity of different algorithms. It then connects these concepts and applies them to the study of various data structures such as arrays, strings, linked lists, stacks, queues, trees, heaps, and graphs. The book utilizes a systematic approach wherein the design of each of the data structures is followed by algorithms of different operations that can be performed on them, and the analysis of these algorithms in terms of their running times. Each chapter includes a variety of end-chapter exercises in the form of MCQs with answers, review questions, and programming exercises to help readers test their knowledge.
This book starts with the fundamentals of data structures and finally lead to the muchdetailed discussion on the subject. The very first chapter introduces the readers with elementary concepts of C as type conversions, structures, pointers, dynamic memory management, functions, flow-chart, algorithm and fundamental of data structures. This textbook covers the syllabus of Semester College course on data structures. It provides both a strong theoretical base in data structures and an advanced approach to their representation in C. The text is useful to C professionals and programmers, as well as students of any branch of Engineering of graduate and postgraduate courses. The data structures are presented with in the context of complete working programs that have been tested both on a UNIX system and a personal computer using Turbo-C++, Compiler. The code is developed in a top-down fashion, typically with the low-level data structures implementation following the high-level application code. This approach foster good programming habits and makes subject matter more interesting. The book has three goals- to develop a consistent programming methodology, to develop data structures access techniques and to introduce algorithms. The bulk of the text is developed to make a strong hold on data structures. Programming style and development methodology are introduced and its applications are presented. This has the advantage of allowing the reader to concentrate on the data structures, while illustrating how good practices make programming easier.
This book is designed to provide a solid introduction to the basics of C programming, and demonstrate C’s power and flexibility in writing compact and efficient programs not only for information processing but also for high-level computations. It is an ideal text for the students of Computer Applications (BCA/MCA), Computer Science (B.Sc./M.Sc.), Computer Science and Engineering (B.E./B.Tech), Information Technology (B.E./B.Tech.) as well as for the students pursuing courses in other engineering disciplines, both at the degree and diploma levels, possessing little or no programming experience. The book presents a comprehensive treat-ment of the language, highlighting its key features and illustrating effective programm-ing techniques by examples. The basic programming concepts such as data types, input and output statements, looping statements, etc. are clearly explained in a simplified manner. The advanced techniques such as functions, pointers and files are discussed thoroughly. One of the key topics, Data Structures, is explained in detail with diagrammatic representations and well-written programs. The linked list, the heart of the data structure part, is very well illustrated. The final part of the book contains a collection of solved programs to reinforce the understanding of the concepts of the C language.
Using C, this book develops the concepts and theory of data structures and algorithm analysis in a gradual, step-by-step manner, proceeding from concrete examples to abstract principles. Standish covers a wide range of both traditional and contemporary software engineering topics. The text also includes an introduction to object-oriented programming using C++. By introducing recurring themes such as levels of abstraction, recursion, efficiency, representation and trade-offs, the author unifies the material throughout. Mathematical foundations can be incorporated at a variety of depths, allowing the appropriate amount of math for each user.
Implementations, as well as interesting, real-world examples of each data structure and algorithm, are shown in the text. Full source code appears on the accompanying disk.
The free book "Fundamentals of Computer Programming with C#" is a comprehensive computer programming tutorial that teaches programming, logical thinking, data structures and algorithms, problem solving and high quality code with lots of examples in C#. It starts with the first steps in programming and software development like variables, data types, conditional statements, loops and arrays and continues with other basic topics like methods, numeral systems, strings and string processing, exceptions, classes and objects. After the basics this fundamental programming book enters into more advanced programming topics like recursion, data structures (lists, trees, hash-tables and graphs), high-quality code, unit testing and refactoring, object-oriented principles (inheritance, abstraction, encapsulation and polymorphism) and their implementation the C# language. It also covers fundamental topics that each good developer should know like algorithm design, complexity of algorithms and problem solving. The book uses C# language and Visual Studio to illustrate the programming concepts and explains some C# / .NET specific technologies like lambda expressions, extension methods and LINQ. The book is written by a team of developers lead by Svetlin Nakov who has 20+ years practical software development experience. It teaches the major programming concepts and way of thinking needed to become a good software engineer and the C# language in the meantime. It is a great start for anyone who wants to become a skillful software engineer. The books does not teach technologies like databases, mobile and web development, but shows the true way to master the basics of programming regardless of the languages, technologies and tools. It is good for beginners and intermediate developers who want to put a solid base for a successful career in the software engineering industry. The book is accompanied by free video lessons, presentation slides and mind maps, as well as hundreds of exercises and live examples.
