The issues of implementing a data structure in a language such as C++ are examined using classes, arrays, and linked structures. Sorting and searching techniques are analyzed. The concepts of correctness and efficiency of algorithms are developed. Time/space comparisons of iterative algorithms with recursive algorithms are made. The course includes several major programming projects. A weekly lab component is required.
