Introduction to Data Structures

(Note: You only need to submit the output files for datasets One and Two; your timing analysis must be for all five data-sets. If your program does not run for some of the larger datasets, then state this in your submission.

Please delete the input and output files after you use them – the larger files take up a lot of space. If your directory cannot accommodate a file, store it – temporarily – in the directory /tmp )

Reading/ practice assignments

By January 24^th, you should have read all of Chapter 1 of the text, and should be completely familiar with all the C++ features covered there.

Read Ch 2.1 (Introduction to Program performance) and Ch 2.2 (Space Complexity).

Read Ch 2.3 and Ch 2.4

Practice problems from Ch 2.4: 28(b), 28(h), 30(a), 36(a), 37(a), 37(f), 37(k), 37(p).

Read Ch 2.5 (Practical complexities)

Read Ch 3.1 and Ch 3.2. Read the parts of Ch 3.3, Ch 3.4, and Ch 3.5 covered in class.

Practice problems from Ch 3.3: 1, 3, 6

Practice problems from Ch 3.4: 27(a,b), 29, 30

Read Ch 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, and 5.4

Read Ch 6.1, 6.2, and 6.3

Read Ch 8.1 – 8.3, 8.4.2, 8.5 – 8.9

Practice problems from Ch 8.3: 6

Read Ch 11.1 – 11.2 (This topic – AVL trees – was covered somewhat differently in class – you may want to learn primarily from class notes)

Read Ch 9.1 – 9.3 (This topic – binary heaps – was covered somewhat differently in class – you may want to learn primarily from class notes)

Read Ch 7.4
