Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free eBook in PDF format.
Key FeaturesExplore the most common data structures and algorithms you’ll encounter at work and in interviewsConnect theory with real-world implementations in JavaScript and TypeScriptWalk through solutions to LeetCode and HackerRank problems with the authorBook Description
Data structures and algorithms are foundational topics for software developers.
This easy-to-follow book from experienced developer and trainer Loiane Groner will help you to fill in the gaps in your knowledge – whether you’re a self-taught developer, you’re preparing for technical interviews, or you just want to write better code and improve your problem-solving skills.
This fourth edition covers essential data structures, algorithms, and their usage in the context of JavaScript. You’ll follow examples in both JavaScript and TypeScript, in line with the latest standards and best practices, learning how to do complexity analysis along the way. New to this edition are LeetCode and HackerRank exercises at the end of each chapter, which you’ll be guided through solving. You’ll also find brand-new chapters on the tries data structure, and string and math algorithms.
By the end of the book, you will know how to develop programs using the best data structures and algorithms for the job.
What you will learnDeclare, initialize, add, and remove items from arrays, stacks, and queuesLearn how to think about and use recursionCreate and use linked lists, doubly linked lists, and circular linked listsStore unique elements with hash tables, dictionaries, and setsExplore the use of binary trees, binary search trees, and triesDive into the use of graphs and well-known graph algorithmsSort data structures using algorithms like bubble sort and quick sortSearch elements in data structures using sequential sort and binary searchWho this book is for
This book is for JavaScript developers who want to understand or improve their knowledge of how data structures and classic algorithms work. This includes those preparing for technical interviews, and self-taught or bootcamp developers who may lack formal computer science grounding and want to fill in the gaps. A basic understanding of JavaScript syntax and general programming concepts is needed to get the most out of this book.
