Publisher's Synopsis
This new text introduces students of computer science to the theory, implementation and applications of data structures and algorithms. Important features of the book include a strong Abstract Data Type (ADT) approach and informally analyzed implementations using the Big-Oh notation. There is emphasis on program readability, a point which is made in the first chapter and reinforced by example throughout. Recursion is also stressed and a chapter is devoted to its explanation. Tables and figures are used throughout the text and there are end-of-chapter exercises and suggestions for further study.
