Product description
Synopsis
Mark Allen Weiss’ successful book provides a modern approach to algorithms and data structures using the C programming language. The book’s conceptual presentation focuses on ADTs and the analysis of algorithms for efficiency,with a particular concentration on performance and running time. The second edition contains a new chapter that examines advanced data structures such as red black trees,top down splay trees,treaps,k-d trees,and pairing heaps among others. All code examples now conform to ANSI C and coverage of the formal proofs underpinning several key data structures has been strengthened.
From the Back Cover
In this second edition of his best-selling book,Data Structures and Algorithm Analysis in C,Mark Allen Weiss,continues to refine and enhance his innovative approach to algorithms and data structures. Using a C implementation,he highlights conceptual topics,focusing on ADTs and the analysis of algorithms for efficiency as well as performance and running time. Dr. Weiss also distinguishes Data Structures and Algorithm Analysis in C with the extensive use of figures and examples showing the successive stages of an algorithm,his engaging writing style,and a logical organization of topics.
