Description

HI THERE!

A good algorithm usually comes together with a set of good data structures that allow the algorithm to manipulate the data efficiently. In this online course, we consider the common data structures that are used in various computational problems. You will learn how these data structures are implemented in different programming languages and will practice implementing them in our programming assignments. This will help you to understand what is going on inside a particular built-in implementation of a data structure and what to expect from it. You will also learn typical use cases for these data structures.

A FEW EXAMPLES OF QUESTIONS THAT WE ARE GOING TO COVER IN THIS COURSE:

  1. What is a good strategy of resizing a dynamic array?

  2. How priority queues are implemented in C++, Java, and Python?

  3. How to implement a hash table so that the amortized running time of all operations is O(1) on average?

  4. What are good strategies to keep a binary tree balanced?

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

  • Explain the principles of data structures & how they are used

  • Create programs that are able to read and write data from files

  • Store data as key/value pairs using Python dictionaries

  • Accomplish multi-step tasks like sorting or looping using tuples

SKILLS YOU WILL GAIN

  • Python Syntax And Semantics

  • Data Structure

  • Tuple

  • Python Programming

GOOD LUCK!
