 LESSON 1: Orientation and Course Introduction

Course Overview
• The course covers the standard data representation
and algorithms to solve computing problems
efficiently (with respect to space requirements and
time complexity of algorithms). This covers the
following: Stacks, Queues, Tress, Graphs, Maps, and
Sets. Thorough discussion of sorting and searching
algorithms and hashing is covered.

Course Objective
At the end of the course, the students should be able to:
1. Analyze the choice of data structures and algorithms design methods
impacts the performance of programs.
2.Use major techniques in implementing fundamental data types.
3.Recognize how recursion works and how to write recursive algorithms.
4. Implement data structures using various common data representation
such as arrays linked lists, trees.
5.Differentiate singly-linked list from doubly-linked lists.
6. Perform operations linked lists.
7. Identify common data structures such as stacks and queues.
8. Analyze sorting and searching algorithm.

CLASSROOM POLICIES
1. Any evidence of copying or cheating during any examinations may result
in a failing grade from the examination for all parties involved. University
policies and guidelines pertinent to these shall be strictly enforced.
2. Students are advised to keep graded work until the semester has ended.
3. Contents of the syllabus are subject to modification with notification.
4. Mobile phones, radios or other listening devices are not allowed to be
used inside the lecture and laboratory rooms to prevent any distractive
interruption of the class activity unless it is deemed necessary in the topic.
This will be on the full discretion of the instructor.
5. No food, drinks, cigarettes, nor children are allowed inside the lecture
and laboratory rooms.

CLASSROOM POLICIES
6. Students should attend their classes regularly, including make-up
classes. The student will be held liable for all topics covered and
assignments made during his/her absence in class. The university
guidelines on attendance and tardiness will be enforced.
7. Withdrawal and dropping from the subject should be done in
accordance with existing policies and guidelines of the university.
8. The course is expected to have minimum of three (3) quizzes per term.
9. Assignments, exercises, research and report works will be given
throughout the semester. Such requirements shall be due upon the
deadline set as announced in the class. Late submission shall be penalized
with grade deductions (5% per day) or shall no longer be accepted,
depending on the discretion of the subject instructor. These are designed
to assist the students in understanding the materials presented in class,
and to prepare them for the examination.
