Customer Reviews

Very good

The book Sahni wrote is a classic for anyone who wants to grapple with DS. Even if this text was never intended for starters.The beauty of the Sahni text is not only the terse text, but the amazing exercises (available on internet, together with solutions). The book by Sahni also has some very challenging exercises suitable for advanced undergraduates.Students NEW to the subject are better of with simpler texts but students with more than one year of programming experience will find this book more challenging and satisfying, as for graduate students.

Excellent to really understand computer science and Java 2

I used this book as part of my reading list while doing the Sun Java Certification examination.This book is definitely worth getting. In addition, it comes with the full version of Codewarrior for Java 4.0 on a cd.

It is good so far

I don't see it is such bad. In fact I get most from this book. And the codes I read from the web site of the book are very classical,elegant, with detail documentation. I have some other text books on this subject, some explain same material from different angle. They are also good and helpful. I think the more you read, the better you understand. don't be so disappointed. I am aheading chapter 13, it is good so far.

It is a good book.

Somehow the last comment seems to be very personal. I wonder how the comment like this can be posted here, and even worse, twice. I was taught by Dr. Sahni, and used this book as text book. He is one of the best instructor in UF, and the text book using in the course were considered as good by most of my classmates. I notied a few students who never read book, seldom attened lecture got bad final score and then blamed the book and the instructor. So I doubt any biased comments with personal like this came from one of my those classmates, especially from Gainsville, FL. My personal opinion is: it is a good book.

Terrific Work by Great Author

If you like to learn data structure in the mean time polishing your Java, it is a good book for you. It helps to develop you Java program skill and teaches you data structure using real applications.Dr. Tanenbaum writes in his homepage under the topic of his most proudof: There are only a handful of people in the world who are Fellows of both(ACM and IEEE). Dr. Sahni is one of these great guys, as Dr. Tanenbaum.Dr. Sahni is a good instructor, too. Reading his book is just like listening to his lecture. I am sure you will see if you begin to read it.I strongly suggest you buy this book.
