URL: Geeks for Geeks
This is an online resource that contains lots of information on all types of computer science related topics. The information ranges to the basics of different programming languages to different data structures and algorithms. The data structure and algorithms information are very helpful. It includes the specific code that it can be used for in different languages along with the basic operations that the structure can be used for. It also includes many different problems that use the data structure.
Relevancy
This is relevant since it can be used to review the different types of data structures and algorithms that were covered in CMPSC 465. In an interview you can get credit from the interviewer by the way you talk and show understanding even if you cannot fully solve the problem. Geeks for geeks resources will allow you to learn the terminology commonly used so you can use the data structures and algorithms effectively.
Tips
- There is a provided list of common data structures and problems associated with them on each page.
- Focus on the data structures and algorithms that you already know first. Then move onto the newer ones. It is important to master the more common ones since they will likely be asked of you.
- Go through different problem types of a certain data structure/algorithm and learn the problem types that they are used in.
