Working Classes: Data Structures and Algorithms Using C++

by Rick Decker and Stuart Hirshfield

Based on object-oriented programming using C++, Working Classes strikes a balance between traditional CS2 topics and more progressive concepts and language, providing a clear understanding of what a data structure is and what it can do. Decker/Hirshfield demonstrate the power, adaptability, and reusability of object-oriented programs by focusing on classes as a particular implementation of an abstract data type. The text includes hundreds of exercises...

A guide to Algorithm & Data Structure Implementation in C++

For mid level computer science courses, this book covers ADTs in theory,and their implementation in C++. The latter portion goes into linear and non linear structures, and a comprehensive coverage is to be found. The book is well laid out with good use of diagrams, but could be improved by the useage of the same filenames in the text as on the disk, and by selected answers to the profusion of exercises at the end of chapters. Overall, quality material and valuable both as a learning tool and as a later reference for the programmer.
