Learning by Doing or Data Structures and Algorithm Analysis in C

Learning by Doing: A Comprehensive Guide to Simulations, Computer Games, and Pedagogy in e-Learning and Other Educational Experiences

Author: Clark Aldrich

Designed for learning professionals and drawing on both game creators and instructional designers, Learning by Doing explains how to select, research, build, sell, deploy, and measure the right type of educational simulation for the right situation.  It covers simple approaches that use basic or no technology through projects on the scale of computer games and flight simulators. The book role models content as well, written accessibly with humor, precision, interactivity, and lots of pictures.  Many will also find it a useful tool to improve communication between themselves and their customers, employees, sponsors, and colleagues.  As John Coné, former chief learning officer of Dell Computers, suggests, “Anyone who wants to lead or even succeed in our profession would do well to read this book.”

Data Structures and Algorithm Analysis in C++

Author: Mark Allen Weiss

In this second edition of his successful book, experienced teacher and Author Mark Allen Weiss continues to refine and enhance his innovative Approach to Algorithms And data structures. Written for the advanced data structures course, this text highlights theoretical topics like Abstract data types and the efficiency of Algorithms, as well as performance and running time. This edition also includes A new chapter on advanced data structures and material on the Standard Template Library that conforms to the new standard. In Addition, All code has been updated and tested on multiple p1atforms and conforms to the ANSI ISO Final Draft standard. Before covering Algorithms and data structures, the author provides A brief introduction to C++ for programmers unfamiliar with the language. All of the source code will be Available over the Internet.

Dr. Weiss also distinguishes the book with his user-friendly writing style, logical organization of topics, and extensive use of figures and examples that show the successive stages of an algorithm.
