About

You will be able to

  • Explain data structure types, abstract data types and algorithm complexity
  • Implement stacks and queues and use them for expression conversion and evaluation
  • Implement singly, doubly and circular linked lists
  • Build binary trees and binary search trees and perform traversals
  • Represent graphs and apply BFS and DFS
  • Implement and compare searching, sorting and hashing techniques

Who it is for

  • BCA students of Semester 3 (UP state universities, Lucknow University pattern)
  • Students preparing for coding interviews and MCA entrance

What you need

  • Programming in C (BCA Semester 2) - arrays, pointers and structures

Questions

Which syllabus does this Data Structures Using C and C++ course follow?

It follows the common UP state university BCA syllabus (University of Lucknow pattern) for BCA Semester 3. If your own university's syllabus differs, the centre follows your university's syllabus and unit order.

Are programs written in C or C++?

Both are accepted. The trainer shows each structure in C and then as a C++ class, as most universities allow either.

Is this subject important for placements?

Yes. Data structures are asked in almost every software interview and coding test.
