Students will learn about basic algorithms and data structures, and how to select an algorithm or data structure for a given task. These include
- arrays, lists, stacks and queues,
- searching and sorting algorithms,
- search trees,
- hash tables,
- and basic graph algorithms.
In addition, students will learn how to design simple algorithms using techniques like incremental algorithms and divide&conquer and how to evaluate algorithms and data structures in terms of their efficiency.
Type of instructions
The sessions will intertwine lectures and solving and discussing exercises.
Compulsory Reading
- A blend of class notes and material from reference books will be used in this course..
