  • Data Structures and Algorithms in C++: Pocket Primer

Data Structures and Algorithms in C++: Pocket Primer

by Lee Wittenberg (Author) Format: Perfect Paperback
4.0 out of 5 stars (3)
This book takes a minimalist approach to the traditional data structures course. It covers only those topics that are absolutely essential; the more esoteric structures and algorithms are left for later study. Suitable for an introductory data structures course or self-study, this book is written from the ground up in C++ (not translated from a Java-based text), and uses features of the C++ Standard Template Library to illustrate important concepts. A unique feature of the text is its use of literate programming techniques (originally developed by Donald Knuth) to present the sample code in a way that keeps the code from overwhelming the accompanying explanations. This book is suitable for an undergraduate data structures course using C++ or for developers needing review.

Features
• Takes a “minimalist” approach to the material that presents only essential concepts. This enables readers to focus on (and remember) just what they’ll need.
• Uses select features of the C++11 standard to simplify the sample code and make it easier to understand.
• Connects the concepts directly to the classes provided the Standard Template Library (STL), and shows how these classes can be implemented in C++.
• Uses “literate programming” techniques that allow the presentation of the sample code to more clearly show the details of the code as well as how the pieces fit together.
