SYDE223 - Data Structures & Algorithms

Course Outline

The Data Structures and Algorithms course emphasizes the following topics: structured software design data structures, abstract data types, recursive algorithms, algorithm analysis and design, sorting and searching, hashing, and problem-solving strategies.

Course Objectives

To study data structures (Linked Lists, Stacks, Queues, Trees and Graphs), their techniques and their role in the design of efficient algorithms.
To study concepts of analyzing space and time efficiency of algorithms.
To study techniques such as searching, data compression and sorting (internal and external) and the role of data structures in the design and implementation of algorithmic techniques.
To gain experience in modular programming through the concept of data-algorithm abstraction.
