From Computer Science Wiki

Class plan.png What are we going to learn today?[edit]

  1. We will review basic data types
  2. We will review abstract data structures
  3. We will review linked list
  4. We will review stacks
  5. We will review queues
  6. We will learn about trees
  7. We will learn about binary trees



Homework.png What is our homework?[edit]

  1. This video provides a basic introduction to trees. It also summarizes, very nicely, other data structures. Please keep in mind the example at the beginning is not a binary tree, but binary trees are discussed later. Ignore the discussion about cousins and uncles. It's ridiculous. But the rest of the video is really good.
