Gain an understanding of fundamental algorithms and data structures.
Learn to write code that scales well with large data sets and know how to identify hidden performance bottlenecks. While concepts covered in the course are addressed in Java, they can be applied to all programming languages and software development domains. Participants will learn the fundamentals needed to answer algorithm and data structures questions commonly asked of job candidates during programming interviews.
Course Highlights:
- Performance Analysis of Algorithms
- Recursion
- Data Abstraction and Time-Space Trade Offs
- Mutual Improvements
Course Learning Outcomes:
- Write code that scales well in real-world situations by selecting appropriate data structures and algorithms
- Identify and resolve bottlenecks to correct performance issues in existing software
- Obtain foundational knowledge necessary to learn standard libraries across all programming languages
- Prepare students to respond appropriately to algorithm questions commonly asked in job interviews
- Acquire the ability to develop object-oriented solutions using the Java programming language
- Apply advanced Java programming techniques including generics and callbacks using function pointers
Hardware: Access to a standard Java compiler is mandatory.
