Recursion, Algorithms and Data Structures Bootcamp in C++

🎓 Recursion, Algorithms and Data Structures Bootcamp in C++

🚀 Course Title: Master Recursion, Backtracking, Dynamic Programming, Graphs, Data Structures, Sorting, & Substring Search Algorithms with C++!

👩‍💻 Course Description:

Embark on a deep dive into the world of algorithms and data structures with our comprehensive "Recursion, Algorithms, and Data Structures Bootcamp" in C++. This course is tailored for computer science enthusiasts who are eager to learn how to implement complex concepts from scratch using C++. 🧐

Each chapter of this course will take you through the theoretical underpinnings of a specific data structure or algorithm and then challenge you to implement it by yourself in C++. By the end of this Bootcamp, you'll have a robust understanding of how to tackle problems using recursion, backtracking, dynamic programming, and more, all within the powerful framework of C++.

🔍 What You Will Learn:

Chapter 1: Recursion 🔄

• The principles of recursive function calls and their applications.
• How recursion interacts with stack memory and heap memory, including a focus on the OS's stack memory.
• Practical examples like the Towers of Hanoi problem to solidify your understanding of recursion.

Chapter 2: Backtracking 🔀

• Discover what backtracking is and how it can be used to solve complex problems.
• Solve classic problems such as the N-queens problem, coloring problem, and Knight's tour through practical examples.

Chapter 3: Dynamic Programming 🚀

• Learn about overlapping subproblems and the power of dynamic programming techniques.
• Understand "memoization" and "tabulation," and apply them to solve problems like calculating Fibonacci numbers and optimizing knapsack decisions.

Chapter 4: Data Structures 📚

• Explore the foundational data structures and abstract data types (ADTs).
• Get hands-on with arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues, binary search trees, priority queues (heaps), and associative arrays (hash tables).

Chapter 5: Graphs 🤝

• Dive into the intricacies of directed and undirected graphs.
• Traverse graphs using breadth-first search and depth-first search, and learn shortest path algorithms like Dijkstra's and Bellman-Ford.

Chapter 6: Substring Search Algorithms 🔍

• Uncover the most efficient substring search algorithms.
• Implement the naive approach, and then optimize with advanced algorithms like Knuth-Morris-Pratt (KMP), Rabin-Karp, and Z algorithm.

Chapter 7: Sorting 📈

• Compare different sorting algorithms and their use cases.
• Learn about both comparison-based and non-comparison-based methods, including string sorting techniques like bubble sort, selection sort, insertion sort, quicksort, merge sort, counting sort, and radix sort.

Interactive Q&A Sessions: 🤔 After each chapter, you'll have the chance to test your knowledge with a dedicated Q&A section. This interactive component will help reinforce what you've learned and ensure you're on the right track to mastering these concepts.

Whether you're a beginner looking to build a solid foundation or an experienced programmer aiming to sharpen your skills, this Bootcamp will equip you with the tools and knowledge you need to excel in implementing algorithms and data structures in C++.
