Syllabus

Data Structures & Algorithms

In this course you will learn data structures and algorithms by solving 80+ practice problems. You will begin each course by learning to solve defined problems related to a particular data structure and algorithm. By the end of each course, you would be able to evaluate and assess different data structures and algorithms for any open-ended problem and implement a solution based on your design choices.

4 months to complete

PREREQUISITE KNOWLEDGE

Python & Basic Algebra.See detailed requirements.

  • Welcome

    Get an overview of your program. Meet your instructors, and refresh your Python skills. Learn the framework to deconstruct any open-ended problem and then understand the concepts of time and space complexity.

    UNSCRAMBLE COMPUTER SCIENCE PROBLEMS

  • Data Structures

    Learn different data structures that can be used to store data. Implement different methods used to manipulate these data structures and examine the efficiency. Understand the advantages and applications of different data structures. Learn how to approach open ended problems (either in interview or real-world) and select appropriate data structures based on requirements.

    SHOW ME THE DATA STRUCTURES

  • Basic Algorithms

    Learn and implement basic algorithms such as searching and sorting on different data structures and examine the efficiency of these algorithms. Use recursion to implement these algorithms and then learn how some of these algorithms can be implemented without recursion. Practice selecting and modifying these algorithms for a variety of interview problems.

    PROBLEMS VS. ALGORITHMS

  • Advanced Algorithms

    Build on your algorithm skills by learning more advanced algorithms such as brute-force greedy algorithms, graph algorithms, and dynamic programming which optimizes recursion by storing results to sub problems.

Program Details

PROGRAM OVERVIEW – WHY SHOULD I TAKE THIS PROGRAM?
  • Why should I enroll?

    Whether you want to be a web developer, a machine learning engineer, or a data scientist, having a deep understanding of Data Structures and Algorithms is essential to acing job interviews and becoming a successful software engineer. As Linus Torvalds famously said, “Bad programmers worry about the code. Good programmers worry about data structures and their relationships”.

    The Data Structures and Algorithms Nanodegree program will help you excel at solving everything from well-defined problems, like how to calculate the efficiency of a specific algorithm, to more open-ended problems, like building your own private blockchain or writing a web-crawler.

    You’ll work on over 80 exercises and four real-world projects so that you can get the hands-on practice required to learn how to implement appropriate solutions based on your design choices.

  • What jobs will this program prepare me for?

    While this course is not designed to prepare you for a specific job, after completing this program, you will have had extensive practice solving data structures and algorithm problems to help you prepare for the data structures and algorithms part of coding interviews.

  • How do I know if this program is right for me?

    If you are looking to improve your skills in data structures and algorithms — to prepare for the technical portion of job interviews, to improve your software engineering skills, etc. — then this Nanodegree program will provide you with extensive practice with defined and open-ended problems so that you learn how to implement the appropriate solution based on your design choices.

  • This Nanodegree program was a collaboration between Udacity’s content and engineering teams, as well as industry experts.
