Course Objectives: | This is an introductory course on common data structures that are used in software engineering. After completing the course, the student will have knowledge of applying, implementing and analysis of basic data structures, including, lists, stacks and queues. Certain fundamental techniques, such as sorting, searching and recursion are also taught. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1) Describe and apply basic object oriented programming principles. 2) Implement basic data structures such as linked lists, stacks and queues. 3) Analyze the complexity and efficiency of algorithms. 4) Choose and design data structures for writing efficient programs. 5) Implement recursive algorithms. 6) Describe and implement sorting algorithms on common data structures. 7) Describe and implement search algorithms on common data structures. |
The course content is composed of object oriented Java review, the complexity and efficiency of algorithms, introduction to list-stack-queue structures, implementing list-stack-queue structures, recursion, searching algorithms and sorting algorithms. |
