eBook Description:

Data Structures and Algorithms in C++, 2nd Edition

This second edition of Data Structures and Algorithms in C++ is designed to provide an introduction to data structures and algorithms, including their design, analysis, and implementation. The authors offer an introduction to object-oriented design with C++ and design patterns, including the use of class inheritance and generic programming through class and function templates, and retain a consistent object-oriented viewpoint throughout the book.

This is a “sister” book to Goodrich & Tamassia’s Data Structures and Algorithms in Java, but uses C++ as the basis language instead of Java. This C++ version retains the same pedagogical approach and general structure as the Java version so schools that teach data structures in both C++ and Java can share the same core syllabus.

Data Structures and Algorithms in C++, 2nd Edition is designed to provide an introduction to data structures and algorithms, including their design, analysis, and implementation. The authors offer an introduction to object-oriented design with C++ and design patterns, including the use of class inheritance and generic programming through class and function templates, and retain a consistent object-oriented viewpoint throughout the book.

In terms of curricula based on the IEEE/ACM 2001 Computing Curriculum, this book is appropriate for use in the courses CS102 (I/O/B versions), CS103 (I/O/B versions), CS111 (A version), and CS112 (A/I/O/F/H versions).

From the Back Cover

Data Structures and Algorithms in C++, 2nd Edition: An updated, innovative approach to data structures and algorithms

Written by an author team of experts in their fields, this authoritative guide demystifies even the most difficult mathematical concepts so that you can gain a clear understanding of data structures and algorithms in C++.

The unparalleled author team incorporates the object-oriented design paradigm using C++ as the implementation language, while also providing intuition and analysis of fundamental algorithms.

• Offers a unique multimedia format for learning the fundamentals of data structures and algorithms
• Allows you to visualize key analytic concepts, learn about the most recent insights in the field, and do data structure design
• Provides clear approaches for developing programs
• Features a clear, easy-to-understand writing style that breaks down even the most difficult mathematical concepts

With Goodrich, Tamassia & Mount’s highly visual, applied approach to data structures and algorithms-now in C++!

Building on the extraordinary success of Data Structures and Algorithms in C++, 2nd Edition, Michael Goodrich and Roberto Tamassia, together with C++ authority David Mount, bring you a new text covering data structures in C++. With this book, you will find a true C++ text, rather than a book translated from Java. Both the programming code and the appropriate concepts have been rewritten.

Data Structures and Algorithms in C++, 2nd Edition helps you develop a wide spectrum of valuable skills, ranging from sound algorithm and data structure design, to effective application of analysis techniques, to clean and efficient implementation and coding of design in C++. The authors’ highly visual, applied approach and extensive suite of Web-based learning tools give you the opportunity to see visual justifications of key analytic concepts, learn about the most recent advances in the field, and actually do program design using data structures.

Features:

• Presents a consistent object-oriented perspective.
• Design patterns provide clear approaches for developing programs.
• “Visual Proofs” help you better understand complex analytic concepts.
• Animations on the text’s Web site visually illustrate data structures and algorithms.
• Exercises offer numerous opportunities for hands-on learning at various level of rigor.
• The author’s exceptionally clear writing style helps you understand even the most difficult mathematical concepts.
• Emphasizes the practical application of the latest software engineering practices.
• Consistent object-oriented viewpoint throughout the book.
• Detailed explanation and visualization of sorting algorithms.
• Coverage of graph algorithms and pattern-matching algorithms for more advanced CS2 courses.
• Visual justifications (that is, picture proofs), which make mathematical arguments more understandable for students, appealing to visual learners.
• Motivation of algorithmic concepts with Internet-related applications, such as Web browsers and search engines.
• Accompanying web site with a special password-protected area for instructors.

New to this edition:

• Enhanced consistency with the C++ Standard Template Library (STL), and expanded usage of STL data structures as a basis for designing more complex data structures.
• Improved consistency with modern C++ coding standards in presenting code fragments.
• Simplification of many of the code fragments, focusing on the principal structure and functionality of the data structures.
• More examples and discussion of data structure and algorithm analysis.
• Enhanced the discussion of algorithmic design techniques, like dynamic programming and the greedy method.
