Author Description

This book employs an object-oriented approach to teaching data structures using Java. Many worked examples and approximately 300 additional examples make this book easily accessible to the reader. Most of the concepts in the book are illustrated by several examples, allowing readers to visualize the processes being taught. Introduces abstract concepts, shows how those concepts are useful in problem solving, and then shows the abstractions can be made concrete by using a programming language. Equal emphasis is placed on both the abstract and the concrete versions of a concept, so that the reader learns about the concept itself, its implementation, and its application. For anyone with an interest in learning more about data structures.
