Features: Data structure courses are known for their difficulty and complexity. This book is designed to guide readers in learning, complementing the 21st Century Curriculum Textbook "Data Structures" published by our press. The book consists of 11 chapters, covering the fundamental content of data structure textbooks. It includes a total of 134 examples and 599 exercises. Each chapter (except Chapters 1 and 2) is divided into three parts: a concise introduction to key content, analysis of typical examples, and exercises. The book explicitly and strives to more accurately define the basic concepts of data structures. Most of the algorithms in the examples are described separately using both ADL algorithm language and C++ language. Through comparative analysis of a set of related algorithms, elucidation of the key ideas behind new algorithms, setting the difficulty levels of exercises, and providing hints for more challenging problems, the book aims to achieve a certain degree of heuristic teaching and self-directed learning. By reading this book, readers can gain a deep understanding of data structure concepts, master the techniques of designing and analyzing algorithms based on data structures, and improve their ability to combine theory with practice. The book can also be used in conjunction with the "Data Structures" New Century Network Course undertaken by the author. It serves as a supplementary textbook for computer science students in higher education institutions, a review reference for postgraduate entrance examinations, and a reference book for computer professionals.
