Data Structures and Algorithms in C++

by Adam Drozdek

Strengthen your understanding of data structures and their algorithms for the foundation you need to successfully design, implement and maintain virtually any software system. Theoretical, yet practical, DATA STRUCUTRES AND ALGORITHMS IN C++, 4E by experienced author Adam Drosdek highlights the fundamental connection between data structures and their algorithms, giving equal weight to the practical implementation of data structures and the theoretical analysis of algorithms and their efficiency. This edition provides critical new coverage of treaps, k-d trees and k-d B-trees, generational garbage collection, and other advanced topics such as sorting methods and a new hashing technique. Abundant C++ code examples and a variety of case studies provide valuable insights into data structures implementation. DATA STRUCTURES AND ALGORITHMS IN C++ provides the balance of theory and practice to prepare readers for a variety of applications in a modern, object-oriented paradigm.Important Media content referenced within the product description or the product text may not be available in the ebook version.

Not great. Explanations ranged from decent to perplexing, but definitely skewed more towards the perplexing side.

Not the best book on the topic, I picked it as a language-specific book on the topic but it turns out to be not so good, It's heavily using the C conventions and not making so much use of the C++ facilities.

A very big meh.

This is your foundation for Data Structures in C++ (and probably other similar languages.

I liked how detailed each section is.
+ How the books explains with examples of each algorithm.

I didn't like how the book sometimes goes into deep details (math) without much of explanation.
- also some of the algorithms do not have actual code (only pseudo code).

Generally, this is one of the best books to be read before a technical interview or for computer science majored students who like to go deeper in data structures and algorithms.
