A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Where will you be ten years from now? How will a course in data structures help you? Perhaps you will be a software engineer writing large software in specialized areas such as computer graphics. The authors of such programs, today and in the future, require a ready knowledge of proven methods for representing data.

For example, the graphics program that generated the cover of this book uses a collection of three-dimensional objects--and a programmer must use the knowledge of data structures to make decisions on how to represent such collections. As a programmer, you must also possess an unshakable understanding of fundamental programming techniques and algorithms to manipulate the data structures. The graphics program is again a good example, using recursion to generate beautiful fractal patterns, and using efficient sorting algorithms in the process of removing hidden objects.

With many accessible examples, this book provides the knowledge of data representations and algorithms in a way that will be immediately useful to you with C++. This book also focuses on foundational material that will continue to be useful to you over the next ten years and beyond.

Data Structures and Other Objects Using C++ provides:

• a balanced approach to data structures and object-oriented programming
• early, self-contained coverage of key C++ and object-oriented programming topics
• a solid foundation in specifying, designing, implementing, and using simple container classes, lists, stacks, queues, trees, and more
• accessible coverage of fundamental topics such as container classes, pointers and linked lists, time analysis, testing, recursion, searching and sorting
• extensive appendices that will make this book a valuable resource for years to come

Présentation de l'éditeur

Data Structures and Other Objects Using C++ meets the needs of anyone who wants to balance the introduction of object-oriented concepts with data structures with C++. This book takes a gentle approach to the data structures course in C++ in that it provides an early, self-contained review of object-oriented programming and C++ to give students a firm grasp of key concepts and allows those experienced in another language to adjust easily. The book also offers flexibility that allows professors such options as emphasizing object-oriented programming, covering recursion and sorting early, or accelerating the pace of the course. This book provides a solid foundation in building and using abstract data types. The authors provide the basis for studying data structures by covering topics like container classes, pointers and linked lists, and time analysis and testing. In addition, the book contains an assortment of advanced topics such as B-trees for project building and graphs.
