ITC468 Data Structures PG (8)
Abstract
This subject builds on the student's previous knowledge of programming in a high-level language. It provides a study of abstract data types and classical data structures, including their implementation and their use in applications. Students will use their knowledge of object-oriented design techniques and extend these to solve programming problems. |
