B3. Other Reference Material
You may find the following material useful, as far as the
coverage of asymptotic growth of functions and recurrences are
concerned.
- Data Structures and Algorithms in Java
by M. T. Goodrich and R. Tamassia, Wiley.
- Computer Algorithms: Introduction to Design and Analysis
by Sara Baase and Allen Van Gelder, Addison Wesley.
- Data Structures and Algorithms with Object-Oriented
Design Patterns in Java
by B. Press, Wiley.
B4. Source code
Source code cited in the programming exercises. The C++ version first:
-
misc/Source/C++/testing.tar
or
misc/Source/C++/sortgC++.tar
are one of the same and contain three individual files.
On a UNIX system (eg. AFS or Linux) you untar say the testing.tar file by typing
tar xvf testing.tar . On a PC
one could use a file extraction/compression
program such as WinZip to extract its contents.
The tar file contains the following three files that can be retrieved
independently as well.
ATTENTION VISUAL C++ USERS In sortg.cc, you might have to replace INT_MAX by
RAND_MAX and the function call to random() by a function call to rand() to make things work
right.
Note that AFS-based C++ compilers understand C++ files
that have .cc suffixes. If you use Visual C++ you may have to
use .cpp suffixes in filenames for things to work properly..
-
misc/Source/C++/Makefile.
-
misc/Source/C++/bubble.cc.
-
misc/Source/C++/sortg.cc.
The C version is similar in structure.
-
misc/Source/C/testing.tar
or
misc/Source/C/sortgC.tar
are one of the same and contain three individual files.
On a UNIX system (eg. AFS or Linux) you untar say the testing.tar file by typing
tar xvf testing.tar . On a PC
one could use a file extraction/compression
program such as WinZip to extract its contents.
The tar file contains the following three files that can be retrieved
independently as well.
-
misc/Source/C/Makefile.
-
misc/Source/C/bubble.c.
-
misc/Source/C/sortg.c.
