This textbook is about computer science. It is also about Python.
However, there is much more. The study of algorithms and data
structures is central to understanding what computer science is all
about. Learning computer science is not unlike learning any other
type of difficult subject matter. The only way to be successful is
through deliberate and incremental exposure to the fundamental
ideas. A beginning computer scientist needs practice so that there
is a thorough understanding before continuing on to the more
complex parts of the curriculum. In addition, a beginner needs to
be given the opportunity to be successful and gain confidence. This
textbook is designed to serve as a text for a first course on data
structures and algorithms, typically taught as the second course in
the computer science curriculum. Even though the second course is
considered more advanced than the first course, this book assumes
you are beginners at this level. You may still be struggling with
some of the basic ideas and skills from a first computer science
course and yet be ready to further explore the discipline and
continue to practice problem solving. The authors cover abstract
data types and data structures, writing algorithms, and solving
problems. We look at a number of data structures and solve classic
problems that arise. The tools and techniques that you learn here
will be applied over and over as you continue your study of
computer science. This textbook has three key features: - A strong
focus on problem solving introduces students to the fundamental
data structures and algorithms by providing a very readable text
without introducing an overwhelming amount of new language syntax.
- Algorithm analysis in terms of Big-O running time is introduced
early and applied throughout. - Python is used to facilitate the
success of beginning students in using and mastering data
structures and algorithms.
