Overview

  • Arrays.
  • Lists (single linked and double linked)
  • Stack
  • Queue
  • Sorting
    • Comparison Sort
    • Non-comparison Sort
    • Sorting algorithms characteristics (in-place, stability)
  • Algorithm complexity, Bounds. Understand and document O, Omega and Theta notations. Perform complexity analysis on all the algorithms I examine. Expected running time, worst-case running time. Average case running time.
  • Set
  • Map
  • Hash Map
  • Distributed Hash Map
  • Trees
    • Binary Trees
      • Sorting trees.
    • BTrees
  • Tree walking algorithms. Difference between depth first and breadth first.
  • Graphs
  • Graph algorithms
  • Matrix multiplication (NOKB and code).
  • lg and ln notation. Link from the Mathematics main page.

• • Binary tree height. • Stable sort. • Comparison sort algorithm class. Know that comparison sort cannot do better than n ln n. Proof in a separate article. • Random variable analysis. Indicator random variable. • Consider starting upside down, with the bottom sections, and NOKB concepts from them first. • Difference between a binary search tree and a red-black tree. • Difference between list and queue. • Iteration and recursion – fundamentally different approaches. • Probability Distribution. • Understand and document induction. • Need to understand aggregate analysis Section 17.1
