Algorithms
FEKT-BPC-ALGAcad. year: 2019/2020
Overview of fundamental data structures and their exploitation.
Principles of dynamic memory allocation.
Specification of abstract data types (ADT).
Specification and implementation of ADT's: lists, stack and its exploition, queue, set, array, searching table, graph, binary tree.
Algorithms upon the binary trees.
Searching: sequential, in the ordered and in not ordered array, searching with the guard (sentinel), binary search, search tree,
balanced trees (AVL). Searching in hash-tables.
Ordering (sorting), principles, sorting without the moving of items, sorting with multiple keys. Most common methods of sorting: Select-sort, Bubble-sort, Heap-sort, Insert-sort and its variants, Shell-sort, recursive and non-recursive notation of the Quick sort, Merge-sort,List-merge-sort, Radix-sort.
Recursion and backtrack algorithms. Searching the patterns in the text. Proving of correctness of programs, construction of proved programs.
