C & Data Structures (Electrical and Computer Engineering Series)

Rating:
Summary: Good examples on C Data structures
Review: I agree that there are many examples and CD is also very useful but, author lack explanation on the examples. I give this book 3 stars because it has complete examples which are hard to find in books on C data structures subject.
I suggest using this book with "Introduction to Algorithm" by Thomas Cormen for better understanding on C Data Structures.

Summary: Numerous Errors
Review: I would have to disagree with the other reviews of this text. I found this book full of gramatical errors, typos, and errors in the source code. The concepts presented in the text are exelent and the authors do a fine job of presenting these ideas. It is unfortunate that the editing was not better and that some of the source code seemingly was not compiled and tested prior to being included in the book.

Summary: Full of errors and novice style of programming
Review: Stay away unless you are desperate to lay hands on any data structures book. It has so many errors. Poor editing can confuse you. The code is written in often very beginner's style while no thought is given to Whys and Why Nots of an approach. Definitely not a good reference. Use and throw perhaps.

The program outputs are needlessly printed without any sensible explaination for most of them.


Rating:
Summary: A comprehensive and highly commended instructional text
Review: The collaboration of academicians and computer science experts P. S. Deshpande and O. G. Kakde, C & Data Structures is a comprehensive and highly commended instructional text covering general C programming and most especially the implementation of data structures, as well as how to analyze complex data structure problems. Ranging from the most basic aspects of the C language including operators, control structures, and functions; to practical applications with data structures and advanced problem-solving techniques ; as well as a medley of topics and features including graphs, arrays, searching and sorting methods, stacks and queues, files and preprocessing, and more, C & Data Structures is a well-rounded classroom text, an ideal self-study tool, and an easy-to-consult reference. An included is a CD-ROM which features all of the source codes referred to in the text, as well as supplemental C programs on data structure problems.
