About this title

Synopsis

This book provides the conceptual tools to build file structures that can be quickly and efficiently accessed. It teaches good design judgement through an approach that puts the "hands-on" work of constructing and running programs at the center of the learning process. This best-selling book has been thoroughly updated. It includes timely coverage of file structures in a UNIX environement, in addition to a new and substantial appendix on CD-ROM. All former programs in C and Pascal have been updated to ANSI C and Turbo Pascal 6.0.
