Level: 
6
Credits: 
15 (0.125 EFTS)
Compulsory: 
No
Aim: 
This course introduces the fundamental data structures and algorithms used in software development, extending the object-oriented concepts taught in the pre-requisite subject Programming Principles and Practice. The course will cover searching and sorting, linked data structures such lists and trees as well as hash tables. Upon completion of this course students will be able to implement a variety of data structures and algorithms, and will have an expert knowledge of the scalability and design trade-offs of these algorithms.
Pre-requisites / Co-requisites: 
Students must be admitted to the Bachelor of Computing Systems programme or the Graduate Diploma in Computing programme to enrol in this course. Pre-requisites: For BCS: ISCG5421. For GDC: As approved by the Programme Leader.
