About the Book

Written for an introductory course in data structures, typically known as CS-2, this book was designed and built from the ground up with Java and objects in mind. Frank Carrano and Walter Savitch provide instructors and students with a carefully crafted and class-tested approach for teaching ADTs and objects with Java. The book's unique design organizes material in short segments and relatively small chapters. This approach makes learning easier and allows for teaching flexibility. The book shows students how to organize their data by using a list, a dictionary, a stack, a queue, and so on. Using these data organizations, students will learn about related techniques for algorithm development. FEATURES *Separates the specification and implementation of ADTs into individual, but consecutive, chapters. *Presents short, bite-sized segments that focus attention on one issue at a time. *Organizes material into numerous, relatively small chapters that can be covered in various sequences. *Presents highlighted notes emphasizing key material and providing supplementary comments. *Offers programming tips that give readers additional programming advice. *Contains many figures, making presentation more visual and less imposing than other books. *Offers self-test questions throughout chapters, with answers in the back of the book. *Integrates Java coverage into the presentation, including the javadoc documentation style for Java programs. *Features a Prentice Hall Companion Website available at http://www prenhall.com/carrano

About the Author :
Frank M. Carrano is a professor emeritus of computer science at the University of Rhode Island. He received the Ph.D. degree in computer science from Syracuse University in 1969. His interests include data structures, computer science education, social issues in computing, and numerical computation. Professor Carrano is particularly interested in the design and delivery of undergraduate courses in computer science. He has authored several well-known computer science textbooks for undergraduates.   Walter Savitchreceived the Ph.D. degree in Mathematics from the University of California at Berkeley in 1969. Since that time he has been on the faculty at the University of California at San Diego and is currently a Professor of Computer Science and director of the Interdisciplinary Ph.D. Program in Cognitive Science. Professor Savitch’s research areas include complexity theory, formal language theory, computational linguistics, and the development of computer science education materials. In addition to writing numerous research articles and involvement in other editorial projects, he has written a number of well-known computer science textbooks, including Pascal, Ada, and C++ CS1 and CS2 textbooks.

Review :
"Clear, clean presentation of the concepts. Very careful explanations for an often confusing topic." — Bob Holloway, University of Wisconsin "Technically, the writing is very Java savvy. It is very important that we exploit the neat Java features to improve code engineering. The text does that very nicely." — Bina Ramamurthy, SUNY Buffalo "Good class design is often elusive for students. I think that the way the authors emphasize class design with an eye toward future superclasses is an excellent approach." — Dennis Brylow, Purdue University
