This new edition provides a comprehensive coverage of fundamental data structures, making it ideal for use in computer science courses. It makes significant use of the Standard Templates Library (STL) and relates the data structures and algorithms developed in the text to corresponding implementations in the STL. Many new examples and exercises also have been included. Real-world applications are a unique feature of this text. The author provides several applications for each data structure and algorithm design method discussed, taking examples from topics such as sorting, compression and coding, and image processing. There are almost 1,000 exercises, including comprehension and simple programming problems, and projects. Additionally, the book has an associated web site that contains all the programs in the book, sample data, generated output, solutions to selected exercises, and sample tests with answers.
