Title: Excellent Primer on Data Structures
Review: I used this book for CPS 272 at Washtenaw Community College and found it very clear. The explanations are thorough and very understandable, and the example code is the clearest code I have ever seen (is this really C++?!). When I transfered to the University of Michigan, I used "Data Structures, Algorithms, and Applications in C++" by Sartjai Sahni for EECS 380, which I wouldn't recommend to anyone. I found myself constantly referring back to Carrano's text. The only thing I have against it is that it doesn't cover algorithm efficiency and big-O notation well enough, but I have no hesitation giving it 5 stars.
Is the review positive or negative?
