DATA STRUCTURES, ALGORITHMS, AND APPLICATIONS IN C++

By Sartaj Sahni

Book Overview

This is an introductory text on data structures and algorithms which emphasizes algorithm analysis and the development of efficient code. Important background materials, such as algorithm analysis methods, performance measurement techniques and C++-specific constructs are reviewed. Divided into three parts, the book first reviews algorithm analysis and performance measurement methods, and in chapters two to 11 goes on to focus on data structures. The third part of the book looks at algorithm design methods illustrated with several applications and completed, developed C++ code. The text includes over 80 numbered examples, 25 data structures application sections and 30 sections that deal with algorithm design methods.

Love at first read

It's a beauty and it's for all those C++ coders who want to get in the real stuff. Though not for newbies because of the topic. A very fine book. Must read.

A good book for Data Structure Concepts

I agree with the fact that the English used in this book is a little confusing, probably because this is not the writer's mother language. But this does not really effect understanding the codes and the approaches used in this book. The book is intended for people that are already familiar with C++.If you are a beginner, I recommend that you stay away from this book. But if you are a little experienced in C++ and want to discover...

It is a good book.

Somehow the last comment seems to be very personal. I wonder how the comment like this can be posted here, and even worse, twice. I was taught by Dr. Sahni, and used this book as text book. He is one of the best instructors in UF, and the text book using in the course were considered as good by most of my classmates. I notied a few students who never read book, seldom attened lecture got bad final score and then blamed...

Very good introduction on data structures

This book is a very interesting introduction to data structures.The author uses C++ features in almost every problem , but it would be better if the book had more applications.It is the best book for a beginer on data structures.

a great fundamental book for C++ programmer

The excellent examples starting from a simple case to a complicated one allowed me to learn C++ data structure and algorithms step by step, the style is particularly penetrated in the chapter of Dynamic Programming.
