DATA STRUCTURES, Abstraction and Design Using Java

Author: ELLIOT B. KOFFMAN, PAUL A. T. WOLFGANG

Download

Book Description:

Data Structures: Abstraction and Design Using Java, 3rd Edition, combines a strong emphasis on problem solving and software design with the study of data structures. The authors discuss applications of each data structure to motivate its study. After providing the specification (interface) and the implementation (a Java class), case studies that use the data structure to solve a significant problem are introduced.

The book focuses on the interfaces and classes in the Java Collections Framework. We begin the study of a new data structure by specifying an abstract data type as an interface, which we adapt from the Java API. Readers are encouraged throughout the text to use the Java Collections Framework as a resource for their programming.
