About Course
Data structures and algorithms form the backbone of computer science. They are essential tools for organizing and manipulating data, solving complex computational problems efficiently, and designing algorithms that enable machines to solve real-world challenges.
Data structures are models that store and organize data to solve computational tasks or problems. Algorithms are procedures for solving a problem or performing a computation.
Data structures and algorithms are essential concepts for students, developers, administrators, and IT professionals in computer science. Additionally, the principles taught in data structures and algorithms have relevance to various areas beyond computer programming. This includes fields like computational geometry, optimization, and graph theory where they can be applied effectively. Furthermore, people may encounter these concepts frequently in their daily lives unknowingly - one example is search engines' use of algorithms that list the most relevant web pages within seconds after a query. Our Data Structures and Algorithms course offers an opportunity for individuals to develop a thorough understanding of these core topics within computer science.
Our course covers all the essential data structures and algorithms in detail.
Linear data structures: This section introduces students to the linear structure of linear lists, stacks and queues. The course extensively covers the implementation, manipulation, and utilization of these structures in solving a variety of problems.
Nonlinear data structures: This section focuses on the nonlinear structure of generalized lists, trees, and graphs. The course thoroughly explains the concepts of these data structures, including their creation and modification techniques and exploration algorithms.
Algorithm design and analysis: It is a crucial component in computer science for expanding one's academic understanding. This section teaches effective problem-solving methods, including divide-and-conquer, dynamic programming, greedy algorithms, and graph algorithms. With the application of this knowledge, students can gain practical experience to develop fast and efficient solutions to complex problems encountered while designing software systems on an advanced level.
Applications of data structures and algorithms: In this section, the course applies practical usage of data structures and algorithms beyond their theoretical concepts.
Arrays and Linked Lists: This section covers the implementation and manipulation of arrays and linked lists.Students will learn how to access, search, insert and delete elements from both data structures.
Stacks and Queues: This section will discuss the implementation of stacks and queues as a linear data structure in detail. Students will learn how to use these data structures in achieving specific tasks, such as evaluating expressions and reversing a string.
Trees: This section covers the implementation and exploration of tree data structures including binary trees, AVL trees, red-black trees and B-trees.
Graphs: This section studies the implementation and manipulation of graphs. The course covers graph theory and introduces algorithms used to solve associated problems, such as shortest path and graph traversal.
