What you'll learn

Basics of Data Structures and Algorithms” course provides a comprehensive introduction to the core concepts of data organization and algorithmic problem-solving. Students will learn to implement and utilize basic data structures such as arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues, trees, and graphs, alongside foundational algorithms for searching, sorting, and recursion. Emphasis is placed on understanding and analyzing the efficiency of algorithms using time and space complexity. Through hands-on programming exercises, students will develop the skills to debug, optimize, and apply these concepts to solve real-world problems effectively
