Course Description
Note: This course is a subset of our much longer course 'From 0 to 1: Data Structures & Algorithms' so please don't sign up for both:-)
This is an animated, visual and spatial way to learn data structures and algorithms
- Our brains process different types of information differently - evolutionarily we are wired to absorb information best when it is visual and spatial i.e. when we can close our eyes and see it
- More than most other concepts, Data Structures and Algorithms are best learnt visually. These are incredibly easy to learn visually, very hard to understand most other ways
- This course has been put together by a team with tons of everyday experience in thinking about these concepts and using them at work at Google, Microsoft and Flipkart
Taught by a Stanford-educated ex-Googler.
The graph is a data structure that is used to model a very large number of real world problems. It's also an programming interview favorite. The study of graphs and algorithms associated with graphs forms an entire field of study called graph theory.
- Directed and undirected graphs
- Adjacency matrices, lists and sets
- Breadth and Depth-First traversal
- Topological sort
- Djikstra's algorithm
- Bellman-Ford algorithm
- Prim's algorithm
- Kruskal's algorithm

Loonycorn is us, Janani Ravi and Vitthal Srinivasan. Between us, we have studied at Stanford, been admitted to IIM Ahmedabad and have spent years working in tech, in the Bay Area, New York, Singapore and Bangalore.
Janani: 7 years at Google (New York, Singapore); Studied at Stanford; also worked at Flipkart and Microsoft
Vitthal: Also Google (Singapore) and studied at Stanford; Flipkart, Credit Suisse and INSEAD too
We think we might have hit upon a neat way of teaching complicated tech courses in a funny, practical, engaging way, which is why we are so excited to be here on Udemy!
We hope you will try our offerings, and think you'll like them :-)

Very well done. Very good presentation of the theory and very explanatory practical examples!
By Ana B Sanchez-Prieto on 2/17/2019
It is almost impossible not to understand and forget the contents. The instructor proceeds slowly and assumes no previous knowledge. This is a highly recommendable course for Computer Science students.

So far, so good
By Gautam Kalyanpur on 4/27/2018
Diction of the narrator is simply fantastic and easy to grasp and retain!
By Sachin Kadam on 4/15/2018
this course is really good when it comes to understanding the concepts. Thanks
By Abhi Gore on 3/3/2018
Brilliant!! I am short on adjectives to describe this course. Kudos to the LoonyCorn team

Insanely repetitive
By Tao Zhang on 11/24/2016
One of best quality courses there is on Udemy!
By Edward Chee on 9/25/2016
Good effort. Distracting background music in all videos. Distraction makes it even harder to discern similar-sounding repetitive letters (B versus D) (suggest using labels that don't sound identical). Overall, very heavy into implementation/details without sufficient emphasis on conceptual understanding. Still, a good effort.
By Arun Nayan on 5/10/2016
The tutor explains everything in a clear and concise manner, not in a slow sleep inducing way like other video courses or some books. So far so good.
