Fundamentals of OOP and Data Structures in Java [Hardcover]

A book for an undergraduate course on data structures which integrates the concepts of object-oriented programming and GUI programming.Fundamentals of OOP and Data Structures in Java is for an course on classical data structures. Part one of the book presents the basic principles of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) and Graphical User Interface (GUI) programming with Java. Part two introduces each data structure with GUI-based laboratory programs designed to reinforce the basic principles of the text. These laboratories allow the reader to experiment with the properties of each data structure. By integrating the principles of OOP and GUI programming, this book presents the fundamental issues of data structures in the context of paradigms that are essential to today's professional software developer.Fundamentals of OOP and Data Structures in Java is for an course on classical data structures.
