Don't be perplexed by data structures! This fun, friendly, and fully illustrated guide makes it easy to learn useful data structures you'll put to work every day.
Grokking Data Structures makes it a breeze to learn the most useful day-to-day data structures. You'll follow a steady learning path from absolute basics to advanced concepts, all illustrated with fun examples, engaging industry stories, and hundreds of graphics and cartoons.
In Grokking Data Structures you'll learn how to:
Grokking Data Structures carefully guides you from the most basic data structures like arrays or linked lists all the way to powerful structures like graphs. It's perfect for beginners, and you won't need anything more than high school math to get started. Each data structure you encounter comes with its own complete Python implementation so you can start experimenting with what you learn right away.
Foreword by Daniel Zingaro.
