Computer Science and EngineeringCSE15 Introduction to Data Structures

Teaches students to implement common data structures and the algorithms associated with each data structure, through progressively difficult exercises. Topics include big O notation; pointers, recursion (induction), and dynamic allocation; linked lists and list processing; stacks, queues, binary trees and binary search trees; simple sorting techniques and simple search techniques. Students will gain a working knowledge of the elements of the Java and C programming languages. Prior experience with Unix is assumed. (Formerly Computer Science 12B.)
