Data Structures & Other Objects Using Java

Shelving; Data Structures/Java Data Structures and Other Objects Using Java, 3e Michael Main, University of Colorado at Boulder ISBN: 0-321-37525-4 Michael Mains gentle approach to data structures and objects has introduced thousands of students to the foundations of data structures. Following an early review of object-oriented programming, each data type is introduced using a consistent five-step method understanding the data type abstractly, writing a specification, using the data type, designing and implementing the data type, and analyzing the implementation. In this way, readers learn to think analytically about the efficiency and efficacy of design while gaining exposure to useful Java classes libraries. This Third Edition makes the most of the enhancements of Java 5.0 including: Generic and enumerated data types New forms of for-loops for use with arrays, collections and enumerated types Autoboxing and unboxing for conversion between primitive values and wrappers Methods with a variable number of arguments Input/output features Java subtypes and covariant return values For more information about Addison-Wesley Computing books visit aw.com/computingMain, Michael is the author of 'Data Structures & Other Objects Using Java ', published 2005 under ISBN 9780321375254 and ISBN 0321375254.
