theory behind the binary indexed tree or Fenwick tree data structure

how to use this data structure in computer vision and artificial intelligence

implementation in Python

Chapter 2: LRU Caches

what are caches and why are they so important

how to use doubly linked lists to implement caches

theory behind LRU caches

implementation in Python

Chapter 3: Splay Trees

what are splay trees

how to achieve caches with splay trees

Chapter 4: B-Trees

external memory and internal memory (RAM)

data structures for the external memory

trees with multiple children and multiple keys
