Divided into three separate sections, C & Data Structures covers C programming, as well as the implementation of data structures and an analysis of advanced data structure problems. Beginning with the basic concepts of the C language (including the operators, control structures, and functions), the book progresses to show these concepts through practical application with data structures such as linked lists and trees, and concludes with the integration of C programs and advanced data structure problem-solving. The book covers a vast range of data structures and programming issues, such as syntactic and semantic aspects of C, all control statements in C, concepts of function, macro, files and pointers with examples, graphs, arrays, searching and sorting techniques, stacks and queues, files, and preprocessing. C & Data Structures provides a comprehensive guide to all the data types in C with internal implementation, while providing examples to demonstrate their behavior.
The book is written for both undergraduate and graduate students of core computer science areas. The book would be very useful for other students to learn programming for the purpose of making a career in computer science. It covers all those topics that generally appear in aptitude tests and interviews. It not only gives the language syntax but also discusses its behavior by showing the internal implementation. Authors have covered almost the entire range of data structures and programming such as non-recursive implementation of tree traversals, A* algorithm in Artificial Intelligence, 8-queens problems, etc.
