Product Description
Mark Allen Weiss' innovative approach to algorithms and data structures teaches the simultaneous development of sound analytical and programming skills for the advanced data structures course. Readers learn how to reduce time constraints and develop programs efficiently by analyzing the feasibility of an algorithm before it is coded. The C++ language is brought up-to-date and simplified, and the Standard Template Library is now fully incorporated throughout the text. This Third Edition also features significantly revised coverage of lists, stacks, queues, and trees and an entire chapter dedicated to amortized analysis and advanced data structures such as the Fibonacci heap. Known for its clear and friendly writing style, Data Structures and Algorithm Analysis in C++ is logically organized to cover advanced data structures topics from binary heaps to sorting to NP-completeness. Figures and examples illustrating successive stages of algorithms contribute to Weiss' careful, rigorous and in-depth analysis of each type of algorithm.

 Horrible text book September 24, 2008
The person who wrote this book thinks he's the worlds smartest man. He assumes you know everything, and thus makes steps in examples with no explanation beyond "obviously the next step is...". I would not recommend this book to anyone.
not a good text book February 14, 2008
Doesn't have enough examples. The questions are hard. Also there is no answers in the back or even on the Mark Allen Weiss web page either.
 Great book on data structures! May 24, 2007
This is a great book on data structures. It covers both basic and more advanced data structures.
Good Read for Computer Scientists March 10, 2007
I use this book for my Data Structures & Algorithms class as a sophomore Computer Science major.
This book is a tad bit on the advanced side, but the explanations and examples are great all the way through. There's a certain level of knowledge that is expected and it doesn't let up. I'm not too keen on how good the practice problems are, but the few that i've done require a high level of concentration. Before reading, make sure you're up on proofs (read: proofs EVERYWHERE).
I do think it'd be a good addition to any programmer's collection.
 Concepts explained well. January 4, 2006
I thought that this book did its job in explaining the data structures under consideration effectively, but I did not like the author's coding style, and this is nothing more than taste. The book's goal is the teaching of data structures and it did this. Overall, though, this book is a good reference.
