CISC 3130 - Data Structures

A set of homework exercises will be assigned roughly every two weeks (so there will be around 7 sets of homeworks in total). These will include both programming problems and theoretical exercises. You must hand in all homeworks on time, that is, before the beginning of class on the due date. This is because the solutions will generally be posted at that time on the web page, so it makes no sense for me to accept late homeworks. Exceptions may be made under special circumstances (if you have any kind of problem with making the deadline, talk to me).
The two midterm exams will be non-cumulative, while the final will be cumulative. The best way to prepare for all the exams is to work hard on the homework questions and then also study the solutions which will be posted on this web page.
Students are expected to be aware of and adhere to college-wide policies regarding cheating, plagiarism and academic integrity in general, as laid out here. In particular, cheating will not be tolerated in exams. Also, even though discussing homework problems with your classmates is allowed (and in fact encouraged) each student is responsible for his/her own solution.

List of topics to be covered:

The C++ STL and how it implements the data structures are discussed in this class.
