Data Structures And Algorithms Using C

Everyone knows that programming plays a vital role as a solution to automate and execute a task in a proper manner. Irrespective of mathematical problems, the skills of programming are necessary to solve any type of problems that may be correlated to solve real life problems efficiently and effectively. This book is intended to flow from the basic concepts of C++ to technicalities of the programming language, its approach and debugging. The chapters of the book flow with the formulation of the problem, it's designing, finding the step-by-step solution procedure along with its compilation, debugging and execution with the output. Keeping in mind the learner’s sentiments and requirements, the exemplary programs are narrated with a simple approach so that it can lead to creation of good programs that not only executes properly to give the output, but also enables the learners to incorporate programming skills in them. The style of writing a program using a programming language is also emphasized by introducing the inclusion of comments wherever necessary to encourage writing more readable and well commented programs. As practice makes perfect, each chapter is also enriched with practice exercise questions so as to build the confidence of writing the programs for learners. The book is a complete and all-inclusive handbook of C++ that covers all that a learner as a beginner would expect, as well as complete enough to go ahead with advanced programming. This book will provide a fundamental idea about the concepts of data structures and associated algorithms. By going through the book, the reader will be able to understand about the different types of algorithms and at which situation and what type of algorithms will be applicable.

Using C, this book develops the concepts and theory of data structures and algorithm analysis in a gradual, step-by-step manner, proceeding from concrete examples to abstract principles. Standish covers a wide range of both traditional and contemporary software engineering topics. The text also includes an introduction to object-oriented programming using C++. By introducing recurring themes such as levels of abstraction, recursion, efficiency, representation and trade-offs, the author unifies the material throughout. Mathematical foundations can be incorporated at a variety of depths, allowing the appropriate amount of math for each user.

Implementations, as well as interesting, real-world examples of each data structure and algorithm, are shown in the text. Full source code appears on the accompanying disk.

The book ‘Data Structures and Algorithms Using C’ aims at helping students develop both programming and algorithm analysis skills simultaneously so that they can design programs with the maximum amount of efficiency. The book uses C language since it allows basic data structures to be implemented in a variety of ways. Data structure is a central course in the curriculum of all computer science programs. This book follows the syllabus of Data Structures and Algorithms course being taught in B Tech, BCA and MCA programs of all institutes under most universities.

Michael McMillan discusses the implementation of data structures and algorithms from the .NET framework. The comprehensive text includes basic data structures and algorithms plus advanced algorithms such as probabilistic algorithms and dynamics programming.

With numerous practical, real-world algorithms presented in the C programming language, Bowman's Algorithms and Data Structures: An Approach in C is the algorithms text for courses that take a modern approach. For the one- or two-semester undergraduate course in data structures, it instructs students on the science of developing and analyzing algorithms. Bowman focuses on both the theoretical and practical aspects of algorithm development. He discusses problem-solving techniques and introduces the concepts of data abstraction and algorithm efficiency. More importantly, the text does not present algorithms in a "shopping-list" format. Rather it provides actual insight into the design process itself.

Data Structures and Algorithms Using C++ helps students to master data structures, their algorithms and the analysis of complexities of these algorithms. Each chapter includes an Abstract Data Type (ADT) and applications along with a detailed explanation of the topics. This book meets the requirements of the course curricula of all Indian universities.
