Data Structures and Algorithms: Deep Dive Using Java
What you’ll learn
-
Learn the strengths and weaknesses of a variety of data structures, so you can choose the best data structure for your data and applications
-
Code an implementation of each data structure, so you understand how they work under the covers
-
Learn many of the algorithms commonly used to sort data, so your applications will perform efficiently when sorting large datasets
-
Learn what’s available in the JDK for storing and sorting data, so you won’t waste time reinventing the wheel
So you’ve worked with the basics of data structures and algorithms in Java (or another OO programming language) but feel like you need a deeper knowledge of how things work.
Maybe you have taken other courses on this topic that focus more on teaching how to pass job interview tests (theory) instead of how to make good choices for the programs you develop (implementation).
Or maybe you are ready to move from a junior programming position to a more senior one and need to get skilled in advanced concepts like data structures, and how to apply them to your own projects.
Whatever the reason, if you are looking for a course that focus on the implementations to give you a complete understanding of how things work, then this is the course for you.
This course goes over the theory of how things work, but only to give you what you need to know to understand the implementation covered.
Complete source code is included and available for you to download.
This is a hands-on course! If you want to try understand things at a deep level, and work on implementations, rather than theory, then again, this is the course for you.
Topics covered:-
Arrays
Linked Lists
Trees
Hashtables
Stacks
Queues
Heaps
Sort algorithms
Search algorithms
The course also spends more time than most other courses of its kind looking at what’s available in the JDK. Students wanting to understand how things work “under the hood” will benefit enormously from this course.
Why learn about data structures and algorithms?
The reality is, the more you learn about data structures and algorithms, the better a programmer you become.
Why?
Because, data structures and algorithms are effectively patterns for solving problems. You want to add as many of them as you can to your skill-set. By doing so, you will find you solve more problems, and use the right tools for the job, in a more elegant way. And you will learn a heap of them in this course.
Why enrolling in this course is the best decision you can make.
Your instructor, Sarah Ettritch has over 25 years’ software development experience and has been working with Java since JDK 1.1. She has spent many years creating tools used by developers, which required a deep knowledge of data structures and algorithms, and is perfectly qualified to teach this course.
Most courses focus on giving you the theory of how things work, so that you can take an interview. Whilst the theory is important, the knowledge of how to implement these data structures and algorithms are of vital importance.
This course goes over the theory of how things work, but only to give you what you need to know to understand the implementation covered. The main focus of the course is to give you a real understanding of how things work under the hood, so that you can apply this to future programming projects.
If you want to actually understand how things work, and be able to take that understanding and apply it to your own programs, then this course is for you.
After completing this course, you will have a solid understanding of data structures and algorithms (both the theory, and the implementation).
The sooner you sign up for this course, the sooner you will have the skills and knowledge you need to increase your job or consulting opportunities. Java developers with key skills and understanding of data structures and algorithms are in high demand and get paid extremely well.
If you are ready for that new job promotion or consulting opportunity, it’s time to get started.

Great content and the instructor shows proper example, explain the code in simple terms. I enjoyed the course and highly recommend to others.
Thank you for creating such great contents, Learn Programming Academy is my go to place for programming contents !!
Koustav –
Good experience specially when I am a starter in ds and algos. Enjoyed a lot.
Ibrahim Ayanbunmi –
The content is explained with good detail and is easy to understand but I believe that there could have been more additions to this data structures and algorithm course.
Sourabh Gour –
Sarah breaks down complex topics which were otherwise intimidating to me at first into a series of constructs which are fun to grasp. Her stoic no-nonsense style of teaching was not something I liked the most but then gradually I grew on that style after I realized the seriousness of the stuff being covered. I feel grateful to have her as the instructor of this course. I wish she had more of these.
Raj Mehta –
The instructors are not solving my dougt . my concepts are not clear and i am not able to solve the challenges. and i am requesting them to pls solve my dougt.
Mainak Sen –
The course was good with the concepts explained really well on the implemntation of the various data structures and the algorithms .It can be enhanced more with inclusion of more and more challenges based on the data structures taught as part of the course .
Ryan Young –
Easy to follow examples. Sometimes things are repeated multiple times which is not necessarily a bad thing, but it does make the course longer. Occasionally I sped up the video playback to get through those sections faster.
Jose Alberto Beltran-Lara –
Everything was explained perfectly. However, I do feel like there is always something new to learn or touch back on in terms of more advance data structures and I would like to see a course that covers all of that in the future. All in all thank you for this course.
Anand Awasthi –
It is a good course. I found it easy to understand and practice. It is a good starter course for anyone who wants to get a taste of data structure.
Adam Tout –
The course teaching seems good. But since no one answers questions anymore, it isn’t good. If you want to make your course good, I suggest you answer your questions.
Gretchen Geivett –
Fantastic information and really goes into depth to help explain how the algorithms and data structures work. The one thing was there were a few I had some trouble really understanding the breakdown. But I think with more practice and supplemental study guides I will get them down. Thank you!
Luis Deleon –
Pretty good for so little time. look it at 2x speed on the theory parts and normal speed if you want to program the implementations.
