Increase speed and performance of your applications with efficient data structures and algorithms

Key Features

[] See how to use data structures such as arrays, stacks, trees, lists, and graphs through real-world examples[] Find out about important and advanced data structures such as searching and sorting algorithms[] Understand important concepts such as big-o notation, dynamic programming, and functional data structured

Book Description

In this book, we cover not only classical data structures, but also functional data structures.We begin by answering the fundamental question: why data structures? We then move on to cover the relationshipbetween data structures and algorithms, followed by an analysis and evaluation of algorithms. We introduce the fundamentals of data structures, such as lists, stacks, queues, and dictionaries, using real-world examples. We also cover topics such as indexing, sorting, and searching in depth.Later on, you will be exposed to advanced topics such as graph data structures, dynamic programming, and randomized algorithms. You will come to appreciate the intricacies of high performance and scalable programming using R. We also cover special R data structures such as vectors, data frames, and atomic vectors.With this easy-to-read book, you will be able to understand the power of linked lists, double linked lists, and circular linked lists. We will also explore the application of binary search and will go in depth into sorting algorithms such as bubble sort, selection sort, insertion sort, and merge sort.
