Introduces the general concept of a data structure and identifies many commonly used data structures and associated operations. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I had some C programming knowledge but I needed to enhance my skill set to include the use of data structures. This book did the job. It shows how to construct basic data structures and use some basic sorting and searching algorithms on those data strtuctures. I highly recommend this book to people who have some C programming skills but who don't have a degree in Computer Science. So if you are novice C programmer and want to write more sophisticated programs(mulitple files, use of data structures, pointers, and such) get this book. Unlike univeristy-level algorithms and data structures books,this book leaves out the math and I thank the authors for that! By the way, the C++ portion of the book is so insignificant it should not have been listed in the title. This is a 'C' language text.
