Who Is This Book For?

This book is ideal for several audiences:

  • You are a computer science student who wants a text that explains data structures and algorithms in plain English. This book can serve as a supplement to whatever “classic” textbook you happen to be using.

  • You are a beginning developer who knows basic programming, but wants to learn the fundamentals of computer science to write better code and increase your programming knowledge and skills.

  • You are a self-taught developer who has never studied formal computer science (or a developer who did but forgot everything!) and wants to leverage the power of data structures and algorithms to write more scalable and elegant code.
