The course will teach the algorithms, heuristics, and code development skills in solving numerous sorting, graph theory, string processing, and job scheduling problems. It provides both a broad coverage of basic algorithms and data structures and in-depth coverage on selected topics. Moderate to heavy programming in C or Python is expected. Through this study the students will improve their problem-solving skills via various algorithm development examples and exercises.
Learning Objectives
Implement algorithms and data structures for solving different types of problems. Evaluate and compare algorithms for computational complexity. Analyze algorithm implementations for correctness.
