Other versions by this Author
In addition to teaching developers how to solve complex problems, Data Structures and Algorithms in JavaScript is strong preparation for coding interviews and programming competitions.
For JavaScript developers, this book is the best way to learn how data structures and algorithms can be used to solve complex problems—and immediately implement them.
For Javascript developers, this book is a one-stop-shop for learning the algorithms and data structures that solve and optimize complex problems. Covering everything from functional programming and abstract data types, to sorting and searching, lists, bags, binary trees, forests, heaps, and graphs—the author uses examples taken from coding challenges and interview questions, enabling readers to explore the real-world advantages of specific algorithms and data structures.
Written and illustrated to be a developer’s go-to reference manual as well as for immediate on-the-job applications, performance—both from a theoretical point of view and a practical standpoint—is considered alongside every algorithm or data structure introduced. In addition to demonstrating best practices throughout the text, each chapter ends with a series of questions that amplify the preceding concepts and provide further examples for the reader to apply. Also of note, the book utilizes the latest version of JavaScript (ECMAScript) and its more modern features wherever appropriate.
