10906-01 - Main lecture: Algorithms and Data Structures (6 CP)
| Semester | spring semester 2024 |
| Course frequency | Every spring sem. |
| Lecturers | Gabriele Röger (gabriele.roeger@unibas.ch, Assessor) |
| Content | The course covers the fundamental principles of algorithm design. Topics include: - Runtime analysis and Big-Oh-Notation - Divide-and-conquer design paradigm - foundational abstract data types (array, stack, queue) and their implementation with data structures - tree structures (heaps, search trees, red-black trees) - hash tables - sorting and graph algorithms The language-independence of the concepts is demonstrated by the parallel usage of two programming languages, Java and Python. |
| Learning objectives | The participants are familiar with the fundamental algorithms and data structures in computer science, and can adequately assess and apply them in the context of a specific application. |
