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

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.

By Christiano Coutinho on 11/10/2018

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

By John Cibula on 9/27/2017

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.
