A guide to implement the most up to date algorithms from scratch

This course is about data structures and algorithms. We are going to implement the problems in Python, but I try to do it as generic as possible: so the core of the algorithms can be used in C++ or Java. The course takes approximately 4 hours to complete. I highly recommend typing out these data structures and algorithms several times on your own in order to get a good grasp of it.

In the first part of the course we are going to learn about basic data structures such as linked lists, heaps and some advanced ones such as ternary search trees. The second part will be about graph algorithms. We will try to optimize each data structure as much as possible.
