Rating:  Summary: FDS in C provides an in-depth look at data structures Review: "Fundamentals of Data Structures in C" (FDS in C) is the third book in a series of data structure texts which began with "FDS" followed by "FDS in Pascal", and includes "FDS in C++". The series of books has been very successful over the past 22 years and there are translations into many languages other than English.The primary focus of the books has been on the interplay between data structures and algorithms. A wide variety of data structures are covered in detail. These include arrays, polynomials, matrices, sparse matrices, stacks, queues, heaps, graphs, lists of many varieties, and trees of many varieties (trees, binary trees, avl trees, B-trees, 2-3 trees, red-black trees, etc.). For all of the data structures detailed algorithms are provided, followed by in-depth analyses of each of the algorithms. The topic of data structures in the Computer Science curriculum is now introduced quite early, e.g. in the first and se! cond course of the computer science major. This book may be too difficult for many beginning students of computer science. Some schools use it for part of their Algorithms course, and some use it for an Advanced Data Structures course. However, many schools continue to use it as the primary text for the second computing course in the CS major.

Rating:  Summary: A Book that covers almost all fundamental Data Structures Review: An excellent book for a student who has a fundamental knowledge of programming in C/C++ and Mathematics as well. The font of printing needs to be enlarged a little bit.

Rating:  Summary: Algorithm source be die.. Review: I learned various algorithme in the Fundamentals of Data Structures in C. In my efforts, it's too difficult. So I want more sources. For textbook, it's very good book. But it's too hard to stuy alone. Specially Red-black tree....
Rating:  Summary: Difficult to understand! Review: I thought that I was the only person who has difficulties understanding this book, but it turned out, that a majority of my classmates later told me that they too have difficulties understanding this book!
Rating:  Summary: poor motivation and overall clarity. Review: i used this book a couple years ago, but vividly remember the non-striaghtforward (and ocassionally wrong) algorithms given in the text. i also remember the "diagrams" were misleading, suggesting a different structure than described in the text. lastly, little to no motivation was given for many subjects, and time/space complexity were very much sidebar subjects.
Rating:  Summary: this book has no solution. Review: I wanna perfect programs. But this book is in part. I need this book's solution manual. That's all
Rating:  Summary: Too Academic Review: The book was far too academic to be usefull. Why are college text books written by instructors and so expensive?
Rating:  Summary: worst book for c++ Review: The most confusing book I ever read. I am a student at Cal Poly Pomona and I am studying CS. We are using this book for cs240 class. Ever body in the class agrees including the instructor that this book shouldn't be used for teaching. Our instructor is looking for a new book. The ideas and concepts are totally unclear. There are not enough examples. i really feel bad that I wasted my money on this book and now I have to buy another one
