CPE360: Computational Data Structures and Algorithms

Home
Note: The CPE360 started in the autumn quarter (September 2022) bu Professor Hang Liu in Stevens Insitute Of Technology --- Burhard 103.

Course Description

This class will cover the principles and practices of data-structure and algorithm. This class includes theory and programming sections. We will study different data-structure and their operations likes array, list, vector, trees, heap and graph. Besides, we will not only learn how to design how to solve a problem, but also how to make program run, measure their time-complexity and time comsuming.
