Very good book but not for beginners

If you don't have good knowledge about C then this book will be confuse beacuse this book is about DS and NOT about C programming. Certainly it use some C/C++ to write implementations of DS but not for teach C/C++. If you really know C then you can buy it. In my case it was a very good book and I get very good knowledge about DS. By the way, I bought and read this book in spanish, it was a good translation.

Brand new book as said. Very nice seller.

Received book in timely manner and in very good condition. Good seller. Fast.

Yes. It is not for beginners.

I find it annoying when a book is negatively dished because it is not understood. How can you give a review on something that you don't understand? Yes, go ahead and feel frustrated; but, consider that it might have alot to offer and that you are missing some fundamental knowledge/skills that the book assumes. I too found the book challenging, but instead of quitting at difficult points, I simply researched the topic online or in more elementary books. In all cases once the lightbulb when on in my head, I'd go back to this book and was able to follow along and greatly appreciate it.I really liked this book because it is very detailed without being chatty, it uses a good combination of C code and pseudo-code, isn't mathematically challenging and has a great index.I'd give it a 5 if it provided more C code, introduced new topics more gradually, and provided answers and code for the many exercises because some important implementations are left as exercises. I do however understand why there are no answers to the exercises and why more C code is not provided -- it's meant as textbook for a university course. Also, if you are looking for C++ implemenations (I wasn't) in this book then you'll be disappointed because C++ is rarely discussed.

This is a very good book in Data Structures

Hi, I you are interested in Mastering Trees (Binary Search Tree,Generic Tree & Multiway trees ) & Graphs ,this book could be a very good reference. This book has helped me a lot in solving practical problems of data structures.
