Data Structures and Algorithm Analysis in C++

In this text, readers are able to look at specific problems and see how careful implementations can reduce the time constraint for large amounts of data from several years to less than a second. Class templates are used to describe generic data structures and first-class versions of vector and string classes are used. Included is an appendix on a Standard Template Library (STL). This text is for readers who want to learn good programming and algorithm analysis skills simultaneously so that they can develop such programs with the maximum amount of efficiency. Readers should have some knowledge of intermediate programming, including topics as object-based programming and recursion, and some background in discrete math.

Advanced Data Structures/Algorithms C++

Data Structures and Algorithm Analysis in C++, 3/e

Mark Allen Weiss, Florida International University

ISBN : 0-321-37531-9

Mark Allen Weiss teaches readers to reduce time constraints and develop programs efficiently by analyzing an algorithm s feasibility before it is coded. His innovative approach to advanced algorithms and data structures simultaneously develops sound algorithm analysis and programming skills.

The Third Edition features a full C++ language update and incorporation of the Standard Template Library. There is new treatment of lists, stacks, queues, and trees, and an entire chapter dedicated to amortized analysis and advanced data structures such as the Fibonacci heap.

Highlights of the Third Edition

All code has been updated and tested to ensure compliance with the ANSI/ISO C++ standards

Standard Template Library fully incorporated throughout the text

Completely revised coverage of lists, stacks, and queues in Chapter 3

Readability enhanced by fresh interior design with new figures and examples

End-of-chapter exercises, ranked by difficulty, reinforce key chapter concepts
