Data Structures Succinctly Volume One By Robert Hovick

... really making the best decisions about which algorithms and data structures you are using? Meaningful understanding of algorithms and data structures starts with having a way to express and compare ... applied to ten, or one thousand, or ten million items? If an algorithm runs in 5 milliseconds with one thousand items, what can we say about what will happen when it runs with...

... Just for fun, let’s look at one more hash algorithm. This hash algorithm, known as a folding hash, does not process the string character by character, but rather in 4-byte blocks. Let’s take a ... look at how the ASCII string Robert Horvick” would be hashed. First, the string is broken up into 4-byte blocks. Since we are using ASCII encoding, each character is one block, and so the...
