This second edition of Data Structures Using C has been developed to provide a comprehensive and consistent coverage of both the abstract concepts of data structures as well as the implementation of these concepts using C language. It begins with a thorough overview of the concepts of C programming followed by introduction of different data structures and methods to analyse the complexity of different algorithms. It then connects these concepts and applies them to the study of various data structures such as arrays, strings, linked lists, stacks, queues, trees, heaps, and graphs. The book utilizes a systematic approach wherein the design of each of the data structures is followed by algorithms of different operations that can be performed on them, and the analysis of these algorithms in terms of their running times. Each chapter includes a variety of end-chapter exercises in the form of MCQs with answers, review questions, and programming exercises to help readers test their knowledge.

• A Snap Shot Oriented Treatise with Live Engineering Examples. • Each chapter is is supplemented with concept oriented questions with answers and explanations. • Some practical life problems from Education, business are included.

Using C, this book develops the concepts and theory of data structures and algorithm analysis in a gradual, step-by-step manner, proceeding from concrete examples to abstract principles. Standish covers a wide range of both traditional and contemporary software engineering topics. The text also includes an introduction to object-oriented programming using C++. By introducing recurring themes such as levels of abstraction, recursion, efficiency, representation and trade-offs, the author unifies the material throughout. Mathematical foundations can be incorporated at a variety of depths, allowing the appropriate amount of math for each user.

Implementations, as well as interesting, real-world examples of each data structure and algorithm, are shown in the text. Full source code appears on the accompanying disk.

This book is the second edition of a text designed for undergraduate engineering courses in Data Structures. The treatment of the subject matter in this second edition maintains the same general philosophy as in the first edition but with significant additions. These changes are designed to improve the readability and understandability of all algorithms so that the students acquire a firm grasp of the key concepts. This book is recommended in Assam Engineering College, Assam, Girijananda Chowdhury Institute of Management and Technology, Assam, Supreme Knowledge Foundation Group, West Bengal, West Bengal University of Technology (WBUT) for B.Tech. The book provides a complete picture of all important data structures used in modern programming practice. It shows :  various ways of representing a data structure  different operations to manage a data structure  several applications of a data structure The algorithms are presented in English-like constructs for ease of comprehension by students, though all of them have been implemented separately in C language to test their correctness. Key Features :  Red-black tree and spray tree are discussed in detail  Includes a new chapter on Sorting  Includes a new chapter on Searching  Includes a new appendix on Analysis of Algorithms for those who may be unfamiliar with the concepts of algorithms  Provides numerous section-wise assignments in each chapter  Also included are exercises—Problems to Ponder—in each chapter to enhance learning The book is suitable for students of : (i) computer science (ii) computer applications (iii) information and communication technology (ICT) (iv) computer science and engineering.

In the computer programming or software development, data structures is one of the most valuable roles for computer engineers. Use of appropriate data structures enables a computer system to perform its task more efficiently, by influencing the ability of computers to store and retrieve data from any location in its memory. This book is about the structure, actions and the principle of a different data type that help improve the ability to write an efficient algorithm, program and Analysis algorithm and programm complexity.
