What You’ll Find In This zyBook:
More action with less text.
- Emphasizes essential data structures and algorithms
- Animations and tools are an excellent match for teaching data structures
- Language-independent pseudocode for data structures to ensure mastery of the fundamental concepts
- This zyBook also features highly visual content, bringing the world of data structures to life
The zyBooks Approach
Less text doesn’t mean less learning.
Provides an introduction to the basics of algorithms and data structures, illustrating the “science” of computing. Mastery of these concepts is part of the foundation of the discipline of computing, leading to computing professionals as distinct from programmers. This zyBook uses pseudocode to ensure the reader masters the fundamental concepts that apply to all programming languages. This zyBook is well suited for a first course in data structures and algorithms.
