One. Fundamentals
The objective of this book is to study a broad variety of important and useful algorithms—methods for solving problems that are suited for computer implementation. Algorithms go hand in hand with data structures—schemes for organizing data that leave them amenable to efficient processing by an algorithm. This chapter introduces the basic tools that we need to study algorithms and data structures.
First, we introduce our basic programming model. All of our programs are implemented using a small subset of the Java programming language plus a few of our own libraries for input/output ...
