Features: The most prominent feature of this book is that it first defines abstract data types (ADTs) and then introduces various concepts and knowledge of data structures based on this foundation. This approach ensures that the reader's focus is not on the internal implementation of data structures but rather on their external functional interfaces and characteristics, enabling readers to learn how to use Java language-provided data structures in a shorter period. The examples in this book only provide key statements while omitting details. The source code can be downloaded from http://web.engr.oregonstate.edu/~budd/books/jds/, which not only makes the book more concise and readable but also helps readers develop independent thinking and a habit of hands-on practice, thereby facilitating a deeper understanding and mastery of data structure knowledge. This book can be used as a teaching material for data structure courses in colleges and universities.
