JavaScript Data Structures and Algorithms: An Introduction to Understanding and Implementing Core Data Structure and Algorithm Fundamentals: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "JavaScript Data Structures and Algorithms: An Introduction to Understanding and Implementing Core Data Structure and Algorithm Fundamentals" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Explore data structures and algorithm concepts and their relation to everyday JavaScript development. A basic understanding of these ideas is essential to any JavaScript developer wishing to analyze and build great software solutions. Youll discover how to implement data structures such as hash tables, linked lists, stacks, queues, trees, and graphs. Youll also learn how a URL shortener, such as bit.ly, is developed and what is happening to the data as a PDF is uploaded to a webpage. This book covers the practical applications of data structures and algorithms to encryption, searching, sorting, and pattern matching. It is crucial for JavaScript developers to understand how data structures work and how to design algorithms. This book and the accompanying code provide that essential foundation for doing so. With JavaScript Data Structures and Algorithms you can start developing your knowledge and applying it to your JavaScript projects today. What Youll Learn Review core data structure fundamentals: arrays, linked-lists, trees, heaps, graphs, and hash-table Review core algorithm fundamentals: search, sort, recursion, breadth/depth first search, dynamic programming, bitwise operators Examine how the core data structure and algorithms knowledge fits into context of JavaScript explained using prototypical inheritance and native JavaScript objects/data types Take a high-level look at commonly used design patterns in JavaScript Who This Book Is For Existing web developers and software engineers seeking to develop or revisit their fundamental data structures knowledge; beginners and students studying JavaScript independently or via a course or coding bootcamp.

Introduction

The motivation for writing this book was the lack of resources available about data structures and algorithms written in JavaScript. This was strange to me because today many of the job opportunities for software development require knowledge of JavaScript; it is the only language that can be used to write the entire stack, including the front-end, mobile (native and hybrid) platforms, and back-end. It is crucial for JavaScript developers to understand how data structures work and how to design algorithms to build applications.

Therefore, this book aims to teach data structure and algorithm concepts from computer science for JavaScript rather than for the more typical Java or C++. Because JavaScript follows the prototypal inheritance pattern, unlike Java and C++ (which follow the inheritance pattern), there are some changes in writing data structures in JavaScript. The classical inheritance pattern allows inheritance by creating a blueprint-like form that objects follow during inheritance. However, the prototypal inheritance pattern means copying the objects and changing their properties.

This book first covers fundamental mathematics for Big-O analysis and then lays out the basic JavaScript foundations, such as primitive objects and types. Then, this book covers implementations and algorithms for fundamental data structures such as linked lists, stacks, trees, heaps, and graphs. Finally, more advanced topics such as efficient string search algorithms, caching algorithms, and dynamic programming problems are explored in great detail.

is a data engineer at Yelp and previously worked for the data platform engineering team at NVIDIA. He developed a deep interest in JavaScript during an internship at SMART Technologies (acquired by Foxconn), where he developed Node.js-based JavaScript APIs for serial port communication between electronic board drivers and a web application. Despite how relevant JavaScript is to the modern software engineering industry, currently no books besides this one teach algorithms and data structures using JavaScript. Sammie understands how difficult these computer science concepts are and aims to provide clear and concise explanations in this book.

Before learning how to implement algorithms, you should understand how to analyze the effectiveness of them. This chapter will focus on the concept of Big-O notation for time and algorithmic space complexity analysis. By the end of this chapter, you will understand how to analyze an implementation of an algorithm with respect to both time (execution time) and space (memory consumed).

Big-O Notation Primer

The Big-O notation measures the worst-case complexity of an algorithm. In Big-O notation, n represents the number of inputs. The question asked with Big-O is the following: What will happen as n approaches infinity?

When you implement an algorithm, Big-O notation is important because it tells you how efficient the algorithm is. Figure shows some common Big-O notations.
