This second edition of Data Structures and Algorithms in C++ is designed to provide an introduction to data structures and algorithms, including their design, analysis, and implementation. The authors offer an introduction to object-oriented design with C++ and design patterns, including the use of class inheritance and generic programming through class and function templates, and retain a consistent object-oriented viewpoint throughout the book. This is a “sister” book to Goodrich & Tamassia’s Data Structures and Algorithms in Java, but uses C++ as the basis language instead of Java. This C++ version retains the same pedagogical approach and general structure as the Java version so schools that teach data structures in both C++ and Java can share the same core syllabus. In terms of curricula based on the IEEE/ACM 2001 Computing Curriculum, this book is appropriate for use in the courses CS102 (I/O/B versions), CS103 (I/O/B versions), CS111 (A version), and CS112 (A/I/O/F/H versions). Review: Excellent!! Happy to have it in my collection - Really excellent book on the topic, I own both the C++ and Python versions of this book... The c++ version is highly exercise driven.. the book explains the basics in each chapter... And gives you exercises to fill the complete versions yourself... Review: Now let me be clear, This book itself is a 2/10 the seller it a 5/5 or 10/10 or 100% or 1/1 - This book is complete garbage when using the most arbitrary language to attempt to get the point across about any topic that it goes over. There are far better resources that you can find online about the topic that are gone over in this book. My experience is get the questions from a friend and use geeksforgeeks.com or youtube to help you understand the topics. book 2/10 seller 10/10 for fast shipping and returning.

A C++ guide to data structures and algorithmic design
This is a highly technical text on the topic of data structures and algorithmic design. Data structures as used within the text are the encapsulation of data variables into a data object: coming from a C background, think of them as a "struct". Unlike C though, C++ encapsulates the methods or functions that are used to manipulate the data variables as well. Simply put, an algorithm is the recipe for manipulating the data in an object. This is not a text for those inexperienced in programming with C++. It is not a beginners text. Even with a couple of years exposure to programming in C++, C, and Java, I found this text a challenge to fully comprehend. I would offer that even after two readings, I am still learning concepts presented in the book every time I re-read. It is up to the standard of C++11, and utilizes some of the newer standard features such as the vector class, for example. Whether you are required to purchase this book for a course, or as an addition to your personal library, I personally think it is an excellent reference. It was a required text for a course I was enrolled, but it has become a permanent part of my reference library because I have found the information and concepts presented to be useful after two reads. And I am looking forward to the time when I can read a 3rd. There are a lot of projects and exercises in the text, more than any one individual can complete in a semester. If you have the opportunity to review a copy at the library or a bookstore, I think you will find it to be a challenging and desirable text for your personal library. Respectfully, MJR

So-so written.
Poor LORs (lines of reasoning) and often uses terms which most of anyone studying using this textbook probably doesn't know yet.

Great book, but the writing style is too mathematical
This is a great book as it provides C++ code for learners to practice. However, the later chapters become increasingly complex, and some theories and lemmas are not well introduced. Nevertheless, it offers a solid introduction to data structures and algorithms using C++.
