● To design linear data structures – lists, stacks, and queues
● To understand sorting, searching and hashing algorithms
● To apply Tree and Graph structures

We're excited to announce the launch of our new website! Visit NameWheelSpinner.com to explore its features and benefits.

UNIT I	ABSTRACT DATA TYPES	9

Abstract Data Types (ADTs) – ADTs and classes – introduction to OOP – classes in Python – inheritance – namespaces – shallow and deep copying
Introduction to analysis of algorithms – asymptotic notations – recursion – analyzing recursive algorithms

UNIT II	LINEAR STRUCTURES	9

List ADT – array-based implementations – linked list implementations – singly linked lists – circularly linked lists – doubly linked lists – applications of lists – Stack ADT – Queue ADT – double ended queues

UNIT III	SORTING AND SEARCHING	9

Bubble sort – selection sort – insertion sort – merge sort – quick sort – linear search – binary search – hashing – hash functions – collision handling – load factors, rehashing, and efficiency

UNIT IV	TREE STRUCTURES	9

Tree ADT – Binary Tree ADT – tree traversals – binary search trees – AVL trees – heaps – multi- way search trees

UNIT V	GRAPH STRUCTURES	9

Graph ADT – representations of graph – graph traversals – DAG – topological ordering – shortest paths – minimum spanning trees

TOTAL : 45 PERIODS

COURSE OUTCOMES: At the end of the course, the student should be able to:

• explain abstract data types
• design, implement, and analyse linear data structures, such as lists, queues, and stacks, according to the needs of different applications
• design, implement, and analyse efficient tree structures to meet requirements such as searching, indexing, and sorting
• model problems as graph problems and implement efficient graph algorithms to solve them
