Product Description

Product Description

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.

Features
  • Includes a chapter on algorithm and design techniques that covers greedy algorithms, divide and conquer algorithms, dynamic programming, randomized algorithms, and backtracking

  • Presents current topics and newer data structures such as Fibonacci heaps, skew heaps, binomial queues, skip lists, and splay trees

  • Contains a chapter on amortized analysis that examines the advanced data structures presented earlier in the book

  • Provides a new chapter on advanced data structures and their implementation covering red black trees, top down splay trees, treaps, k-d trees, pairing heaps, and more

  • Incorporates new results on the average case analysis of heapsort

  • Offers source code from example programs via anonymous FTP

4.0 out of 5 stars A good book for those who has a solid understanding of C++, 31 Oct 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Data Structures and Algorithm Analysis in C++ (Textbook Binding)
I am using it for self-study on data structure. I found that it is well written in explaning the data structure. It follows the common logics. But you have to know about object orieted programming using C++ very well in order to understand it. I recommend it as a fundmental level reference or text book for the topic of data structure.

3.0 out of 5 stars Don't expect too much...., 22 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Data Structures and Algorithm Analysis in C++ (Textbook Binding)
Well, this books covers almost all important chapters that are needed in an Algorithm course. However, detailed explainations of algorithm analysis is totally insufficient, only one or two pages are used to explain the algorithm/theory. You can always find this book too dry for large block of words printed on a whole page -- that's scaring

2.0 out of 5 stars I read it since i want to pass an exam :), 21 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Data Structures and Algorithm Analysis in C++ (Textbook Binding)
First,there are some mistakes in the code supplied with the book,i'm sure Prof. Weiss have already fixed these in the second edition. Second,there MUST be at least answers to the excercises ,i'm not begging for solutions.Third,i'd prefer some other book,like Knuth's,but this one is good enough to pass the exam :),and the thery is described in short and understandable way.To be improved in further editions.
