Helped me ace all my tests!

This is the only data structure book I've managed to read from cover to cover. Compared to other books that focus primarily on algorithms or the mix of both, this one excels at explaining various data structures independently. I took it upon myself to implement all the data structures introduced in this book using Java, which deepened my understanding of many concepts I had only heard of before. This hands-on approach not only built my confidence but also gave me a comprehensive understanding of the most common data structures, as well as a few lesser-known ones. This knowledge was instrumental in helping me land a decent job as a software engineer.

Very well written and easy to read book. As an introductory to the data structures, it gives you all you need with practical examples.

A clear book, but rather thin for the topic. In any matter, I did well for the class that I took this with, and I was happy that for the actual class we did closely follow the book in using what it had to offer to build real projects. I felt after reading it that I had harvest this particular book pretty well.

Pretty good data structures and algorithms reference despite the fact that many of the code examples have bugs in them. The errata for the bugs in the code and the code examples themselves are provided on the authors web site.

I want to read this book

A good book is always worth reading twice. And I'm able to appreciate it more now.
It's very useful if you want to start from the very basic, or want to review the fundamental knowledge.

I think is a good book

It's a solid book, but the organization of the book is a little sloppy.
