Data Structures and Abstraction Using C

Emphasizing C programming style, this text presents material on data structures within the framework of abstraction, program design, correctness and efficiency. Delayed coverage of sorting allows for integration of earlier material and demonstrates the relationship between data structures and algorithm design. An overview of the C programming language is included in early chapters. A Student Laboratory Manual packaged with the text contains directed project and laboratory work tied to chapters in the text. The DRUIDS software is included with the lab manual. This software animates algorithms discussed in the text and allows students' own code to be linked and animated.
