    C++ Data Structures Reference

    Anyone have a few suggestions on good data structures textbooks?

    I couldn't tell you how this book compares to others since this is the only one I have, but I think "Data Structures and other Objects Using C++" by Michael Main is pretty good.

    Hi. I have:
    Data Structures: A Pseudocode Approach with C++ by Gilberg and Forouzan
    The book is OK. I hear that this one is very good but also more technical:
    Introduction to Algorithms by Corman, Leiserson, and Rivest

    Yeah, the one by Rivest et al is a very good book, but also very technical.
    The word rap as it applies to music is the result of a peculiar phonological rule which has stripped the word of its initial voiceless velar stop.

    Data Structures with C++, Malik, Course Tech.

    C++ Plus Data Structures, 3rd ed. Dale, Jones Barlett

    The algorithms book mention above I would not use for an data structures book, it very technical and usually used at Senior or graduate levels at most universities.

    There is also a difference between a course in Data Structures and Algorithm Analysis

    I used the second book above for my second class in c++ at my school. And I believe it's now replaced by the first book above for the same class. The book is pretty digestable after a semester of basic c++.
