Goodrich, Tomassia and Goldwasser's approach to this classic topic is based on the object-oriented paradigm as the framework of choice for the design of data structures.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The design and analysis of efficient data structures has long been recognised as a key component of the Computer Science curriculum. Goodrich, Tamassia, and Goldwasser's approach to this classic topic is based on the object-oriented paradigm as the framework of choice for the design of data structures.

For each ADT presented in the text, the authors provide an associated Java interface. Concrete data structures realising the ADTs are provided as Java classes implementing the interfaces. The Java code implementing fundamental data structures in this book is organised in a single Java package, net.datastructures.

This package forms a coherent library of data structures and algorithms in Java specifically designed for educational purposes in a way that is complementary with the Java Collections Framework.
