Preface

Quite often, as software developers, when presented with a new task or challenge, we find ourselves grabbing code fragments or patterns that we are most familiar with. We typically make this choice because those fragments and patterns represent the shortest path between two points, namely, the clients requirements and a deadline (also known as payday). However, this approach sometimes prevents us from learning new skills and ideas that will make us better and more efficient developers.

This book was written to give aspiring, new, or relatively inexperienced but busy developers an opportunity to step back and examine some of the fundamental concepts regarding data types and data structures. To that, we will examine how these types and structures are built, how they function, and how we can leverage them in our everyday applications. By doing so, we will gain new knowledge, skills, abilities and, hopefully, get some new ideas on how to leverage these basic components.

What this book covers

, Data Types: Foundational Structures , is a very brief overview of basic data types that comprise of data structures. This will be a rapid overview as even new programmers will already be familiar with some or most of these components. Attention will be paid to applications for each type, best practices, and a high-level comparison of any variations between platforms.

, Arrays: Foundational Collections , introduces you to the array data structure. This discussion will include specific details of the structure, including the typical applications, as well as specific concerns for each language. This is an important foundation chapter, as many of the subsequent data structures are built using arrays.

, Lists: Linear Collections , covers the specific details of the list data structure, including the most common functions associated with lists, typical applications for lists, and specific concerns for each language.

, Stacks: LIFO Collections , introduces you to the stack data structure. In this chapter, the reader will learn the specific details of the structure including the most common functions associated with stacks, typical applications for stacks, and specific concerns for each language.

, Queues: FIFO Collections , talks about the specific details of the queue data structure, including the most common functions associated with queues, typical applications for queues, and specific concerns for each language.
