Features: The companion website for this book includes experiments, courseware, solutions to exercises, and more. Each experiment requires students to carefully observe, infer, and test to draw conclusions, encouraging active and proactive learning. The book also features carefully designed teaching tips and exercises. For undergraduate and graduate students studying and learning data structures, this book can serve as their textbook and teaching reference. For programmers, technical service personnel, and users, it is also an excellent reference book. Data structures have always been a core component of computer science courses, as they represent the organization of information. For the same algorithm, representing abstract data types with different data structures can result in varying execution efficiency. This book presents data structures and their algorithms from an object-oriented programming perspective, specifically using the C++ language. Through the study of method interfaces, examples, and applications, it guides students to gradually understand and master how to use data structures efficiently. Compared to traditional data structure textbooks, this book retains a systematic and comprehensive style while emphasizing practical programming integration and focusing on the implementation description of the Standard Template Library. It is also accompanied by a wealth of exercises and experiments, making it an outstanding reference for both classroom and self-study.
