Data Structures: Programming

Catalog description

Students will learn a language-independent treatment of topics including computer organization, data formats, recursion, and abstract data types. Data structures covered include abstract data types, arrays, pointers, link lists, stacks, queues, trees, heaps, hash tables, and graphs. Applications of recursion algorithms are discussed in detail. Techniques for sorting algorithms and searching algorithms, as well as measuring algorithm performance and data structure efficiency using Big-O notation, are presented. (C-ID COMP 132)
