Book Description
Data structures and algorithms form an integral part of JavaScript and other programming languages. They allow you to organize your code in more efficient way. They can transform the way you understand the language, and give you a renewed confidence when tackling some of the most complex development problems faced.
This book begins by covering basics of the JavaScript language and introducing ECMAScript 7, before gradually moving on to the current implementations of ECMAScript 6. It further delves into basic data structures such as arrays, stacks, linked lists, and queues. You will gain an in-depth knowledge of how hash tables and set data structure functions, as well as how trees and hash maps can be used to search files in a HD or represent a database.
This book will empower you to sort your data structures using various algorithms. With further guidance on working with graph data and using both search and sorting algorithms, this book is an accessible route deeper into JavaScript. Graphs being one of the most complex data structures you’ll encounter, we’ll also give you a better understanding of why and how graphs are largely used in GPS navigation systems in social networks.
Toward the end of the book, you’ll discover how all the theories presented by this book can be applied in real-world solutions while working on your own computer networks and Facebook searches.
