Course aims
Support learning about linear and non-linear data structures and their practical application. Support development of problem analysis and solution skills using data structures and suitable algorithms. Support development of practical programming skills in the simple imperative C language that allows the use of references
Brief description of the course
Static and dynamic memory management. Linear data structures, linked lists. Stack, queue, deque, properties, implementation. Tree. Binary tree: implementation, basic algorithms. Graph: implementation, basic algorithms. Basic algorithmic analysis. Complexity classes and Big O notation. Algorithmization strategies. O (N ^ 2) and O (N * log N) sorting algorithms. Searching. Binary seach tree (AVL-tree, red-black-tree, b-tree). Hashing.
Learning outcomes in the course
Upon completing the course the student:
- describes linear and non-linear dynamic and static data structures and the algorithms applied to them, using competent and relevant terminology;
- can in case of more typical problems choose appropriate data structures and algorithms, depending on the problem to be solved;
- creates a computer program, witch uses learnd algorithms to solve the problems.
