The Computer Science Learning Center (CSLC)
CSLC Coaches are often available to help you understand concepts and
work through specific problems. Keep in mind their job is NOT to hold
your hand through an entire assignment. Also, please be respectful of
their time. I.e. don't show up 10 minutes before the center closes
expecting extensive help and please also recognize that they are not open
on Fridays, in the late afternoon, or evenings.
Data Structures and Algorithms in Java (our textbook)
The site includes links to some great notes (in "Presentations"),
animations of some algorithms, and code fragments from the text.
It's highly recommended that you familiarize yourself with the available resources.
§1-3 of the text book
If you need to review interfaces, arrays, lists, stacks, and queues,
the first three chapters of the book are a clear, concise introduction
that will prepare your for the material covered in class.
Interfaces and Inheritance
The class will use interfaces for all data structures. If you aren't already comfortable with
interfaces in Java, you should read the materials linked. It is part of a larger tutorial on Java -
it may be helpful to do a quick read of the entire tutorial from the beginning.
Java Generics Tutorial
The class will make use of Java's ability to work with generic types. If you aren't
already comfortable with generics, you should read through the first 2-3 sections of this
tutorial. Note: you may need to read through the section on Collections
first.
Other Java Tutorials
If you encounter unfamiliar concepts in Java, these may provide helpful
explanations and examples.
net.datastructures (The interfaces we'll be implementing)
An overview of the package used in class. The site provides: 1) an overview of
why the net.datastructures package was developed and its main objectives
(although not required reading, this may help some of you understand the trade offs
faced by the authors and why we chose to use the package), 2) a jar file with
containing all data structures, and 3) zip files with the package and source code for
some select data structures.
