CSIS 3103 - Fall 2010
MWF 11:20 - 12:35 (room TBA)

This course builds on the skills learned in the Programming and Problem Solving sequence. The primary focus of the course is on the definition, specification, implementation, and use of important data structures and supporting algorithms that are commonly used in modern software systems. Data structures to be studied include lists, stacks, queues, trees, graphs and hash tables. Algorithm analysis will also be studied, with emphasis on searching and sorting. Programming projects will provide experience on using the concepts covered in the course.
