Basic course algorithms and data structure. An introduction to practical computer science using Java (Q2717010)

The present textbook is an introductory course on the fundamental topics concerning algorithms and data structures. It is written at most at the level of undergraduate students and offers a practical introduction for all those who wish to enter such fields. The book is organized in six main parts: Fundamental notions (algorithms, complexity; data structures, etc.); Recursion, iteration; recursive curves; trial and error; languages; finite automata; Searching, hashing (also text searching); Sorting algorithms; Tree structures (search trees, AVL trees; 2-3-4-trees, etc.); Classes of algorithms (examples).NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEThe textbook contains many examples and exercises; all algorithms are described in Java. The book is written in a simple and illustrative way.
