Data structures and algorithms are vital elements in many computing applications. When programmers design and build applications, they need to model the application data.

This tutorial launches a short series introducing data structures and algorithms. In Part 1, you’ll learn what a data structure is and how data structures are classified.

We’ll also explore algorithms most commonly used for sorting singly linked lists, and conclude with an example demonstrating the Insertion Sort algorithm.

Learn when and how to use different data structures and their algorithms in your own code. This is harder as a student, as the problem assignments you'll work through just won't impart this knowledge.

Foundations of Data Structures and Algorithms Specialization Building fast and highly performant data science applications requires an intimate knowledge of how data can be organized in a computer and ...

Tour of the most important data structures, fundamental algorithms, and algorithm design techniques: lists, stacks, queues, dynamic arrays, hash tables, priority queues, disjoint set unions, binary ...

One fact about machine learning and data algorithms that may surprise business users is that there aren’t that many of them.
