Grokking Data Structures [Audiobook]

Grokking Data Structures makes it a breeze to learn the most useful day-to-day data structures. You’ll follow a steady learning path from absolute basics to advanced concepts, all illustrated with fun examples, engaging industry stories, and hundreds of graphics and cartoons.

In Grokking Data Structures you’ll learn how to
Understand the most important and widely used data structures
Identify use cases where data structures make the biggest difference
Pick the best data structure solution for a coding challenge
Understand the tradeoffs of data structures and avoid catastrophes
Implement basic data collections like arrays, linked lists, stacks, and priority queues
Use trees and binary search trees (BSTs) to organize data
Use graphs to model relationships and learn about complex data
Efficiently search by key using hash tables and hashing functions
Reason about time and memory requirements of operations on data structures

Grokking Data Structures carefully guides you from the most basic data structures like arrays or linked lists all the way to powerful structures like graphs. It’s perfect for beginners, and you won’t need anything more than high school math to get started. Each data structure you encounter comes with its own complete Python implementation so you can start experimenting with what you learn right away.
