Data Structures with Java: International Edition

For freshman-, sophomore-, or junior-level courses in Computer Science, Data Structures, and Algorithms in the departments of Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Computer Information Systems, and Business Information Systems.

This modern object-oriented approach to data structures helps students make the transition from a first course in programming to an integrated understanding of data structures and their applications. Carefully developing topics with sufficient detail, this text enables students to learn about concepts on their own, offering instructors flexibility and allowing them to use the text as lecture reinforcement. It includes a solid introduction to algorithms, an integral part of understanding data structures, and uses Java syntax and structure in the design of data structures. Its breadth of coverage insures that core topics such as linked lists, sets, maps, and iterators are carefully and comprehensively discussed.

Professor William Ford and Professor William Topp are faculty members with the Computer Science Department, University of the Pacific, Stockton, California. They have also written Introduction to Computing with C++ and Object Technology (Prentice Hall, 1999) and Assembly Language and Systems Programming for the M68000 Family (Jones and Bartlett, 1992).
