Course Description

Course provides a survey of data structures. Content includes elementary methods of complexity analysis applied to algorithms that manipulate dynamic and static data structures. Object-oriented programming techniques are utilized to implement lists, trees, tables, graphs and other classes using the Java language. Algorithms focus on sorting and searching methods.

Course Objectives

A. Continue applet and application development emphasizing modularity and abstract data types.
B . Utilize object-oriented programming skills to design maintainable classes.
C . Analyze algorithms to optimize memory and time complexity.
D . Implement a collection of data structures into a variety of applications.
E . Survey methods of sorting and searching.
