Learning JavaScript Data Structures and Algorithms

A data structure is a particular way of organizing data in a computer to utilize resources efficiently. Data structures and algorithms are the base of every solution to any programming problem.
This book begins by covering the basics of the JavaScript language and then moves on to discuss the most important data structures such as array, queue, stack, and linked list. You will also gain an in-depth knowledge of how hash tables and set data structure function. After this, you will be taught what trees are, and how to use the binary tree and the binary search tree.
In subsequent chapters, you will learn about graphs, DFS, and BFS. Finally, we will round off by learning how to differentiate between various searching and sorting algorithms such as sequential search, binary search, quick sort, bubble sort, and so on, and how to implement them. Towards the end of the book, you will also be introduced to dynamic programming.

Quotes

    rrays in JavaScript are modified objects, meaning that every array that we create has a few methods available to be used.
  • Tatiana Bunaevahas quoted4 years ago
    stack is an ordered collection of items that follows the LIFO (short for Last In First Out) principle.
  • Tatiana Bunaevahas quoted4 years ago
    cope refers to where in the algorithm we can access the variable (it can also be a function when we are working with function scopes). There are local and global variables.
