Riassunto

Reflecting the newest trends in computer science, new and revised material throughout the Second Edition of this book places increased emphasis on abstract data types (ADTs) and object-oriented design. This book continues to offer a thorough, well-organized, and up-to-date presentation of essential principles and practices in data structures using C++. Topics include C++'s I/O and string classes, pointers and dynamic allocation, lists, array-based and linked-list implementations of stacks, queues, searching, inheritance and more. For computer professionals in companies that have computing departments or those who want advanced training in C++.

L'autore

Larry B. Nyhoff earned the B.A. in Mathematics in 1960 from Calvin College and the M.S. in 1961 from the University of Michigan. Larry continued his study of Mathematics and received the Ph.D. in 1969 from Michigan State University. He also did graduate work in computer science from 1981-83. He is in his 41st year as a professor at Calvin College and has aided in the development of the college's computer science curriculum since its inception. In addition to authoring and coauthoring nearly 30 textbooks used worldwide, Larry is a professional member of ACM and SIGCSE.

Dalla quarta di copertina

Abstract data types (ADT's) and data structures are key elements in unlocking the power of object-oriented programming. Designed for CS2 course; this popular book thoroughly covers ADTs (Abstract Data Types), data structures, and their use in problem solving. The text guides the student through the development of ADTs such as stacks, queues, and binary trees, the use of key data structures such as arrays, classes and linked lists to implement ADTs, and problem solving using Object-Oriented Design (OOD) methodologies. Algorithms required to design arid implement ADTs in C++ are given thorough treatment along with a solid introduction to the Standard Template Library (STL). C++ topics such as recursion, inheritance, and polymorphism are introduced and some C-style topics relative to data structures are also provided. Using examples, case studies and exercises from various areas of computer science, author Larry Nyhoff offers the student a solid foundation for further studies in CS while providing concrete tools for unlocking the power of C++.
