About this Unit

This unit explores the use of fundamental data structures and algorithmic techniques in computing, in order to prepare students to design efficient software applications to implement moderately-complex requirements. The unit demonstrates how various recursive and iterative algorithms work in order to solve specific problems, such as sorting and implementing operations on stacks, queues, linked lists, trees, hash tables and heaps. Students are also shown how to analyse and compare the computational complexity of these algorithms.
