Computer Programming 3 (Data Struct. & Alg.) Dublin City University - Engineering & Computer Science Program Fall 2021 Semester - Dublin

The module aims to give students an understanding of basic data structures and algorithms, most especially with respect to managing collections of data such as sets, sequences, and maps. Students will learn how to specify collections using abstract data types (ADTs), how to implement them using a variety of techniques such as linked lists and search trees, and how to package them using object-oriented programming methods. Students will learn a range of fundamental algorithms including searching and sorting, and how to assess their computational cost. Students will also develop practical skills in implementing and testing algorithms on computers.
