Pascal Plus Data Structures

Rating:
Summary: A Good Book, despite choice of language
Review: I've taken several classes in data structures, and of the various textbooks I've used, this is the one I continue to reference. The code is in Pascal, but that hardly detracts from the usefulness of the book. The code is fairly well-written, well-documented, and the text is easy to follow and understand. All the major data structures are covered well, including trees, heaps, and graphs. Several sorting and searching algorithms, including QuickSort and HeapSort, are also covered.

Summary: If you are studying Pascal buy this book also.
Review: If you're planning to learn c, don't get confused by learning Pascal first. However if you are learning Pascal as part of introduction to programming, this book makes a good supplement to whichever book was recommended for your course. I found the diagrams and descriptions to be much clearer than most contemporary Pascal training books.

Summary: Very good for beginners
Review: This is an excellent introduction to Data Structures. The fact that all the code is in Pascal doesn't take away from it in any way.
