Engineering Data Structures" is a comprehensive and student-friendly guide designed to equip learners with a solid foundation in the principles, applications, and implementation of data structures within the field of engineering and computer science. With a perfect balance of theory and practice, this book offers a deep dive into the conceptual framework of data structures while also emphasizing hands-on problem-solving and coding skills that are essential for real-world software development. This book begins with the basics of arrays and linked lists and advances through stacks, queues, trees, graphs, and hash tables, offering clear and concise explanations supported by flowcharts, real-life analogies, and illustrative examples. Each chapter provides not only an in-depth explanation of the data structure but also discusses time and space complexities, helping readers understand the efficiency of different approaches. What sets this book apart is its engineering-centric approach, where data structures are not only discussed in isolation but are also explored in the context of solving engineering problems whether it's managing large-scale data systems, optimizing networks, or designing efficient algorithms for embedded systems and robotics.
