Synopsis

For one- or two-semester courses in data structures (CS-2) in the departments of Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Business, and Management Information Systems.

  

This is the most student-friendly data structures text available that introduces ADTs in individual, brief chapters – each with pedagogical tools to help students master each concept. Using the latest features of Java 5, this unique object-oriented presentation makes a clear distinction between specification and implementation to simplify learning, while providing maximum classroom flexibility.
