This book provides a practical introduction to data structures from a viewpoint of abstract thinking and problem solving, as well as the use of Java. It does this through what remains a unique approach that clearly separates each data structure’s interface (how to use a data structure) from it’s implementation (how to actually program that structure) into different parts of the book. Part I (Tour of Java), Part II (Algorithms and Building Blocks), and Part III (Applications) lay the groundwork by discussing basic concepts and tools and providing some practical examples, but implementation of data structures is not shown until Part IV (Implementations), forcing the reader to think about the functionality of the data structures before the hash table is implemented.

The third edition of Data Structures and Problem Solving Using Java incorporates the enhancements of Java 5.0. It includes coverage of generic programming, and content on the design of generic collection classes. This book is appropriate for readers who are familiar with basic Java programming concepts or are new to the language and want to learn how it treats data structures concepts.

3.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't teach you java besides the basics
Reviewed in the United States on 6 January 2016

$600 for a used version this book, really? That's what I just read right before I clicked to write this review. This book, if used, is likely chosen to teach you about java and how to write certain programs in java. It is really no different than if you were to write programs in C or any other language. Now java is a very big language, so this book does not actually teach you more than the basics of java. I can't say much about this book, since I almost never opened this book for the semester I rented it. Likely, you will just end up searching alternative code on Google or something like that. Use this book only if you are really into Java and want to look smart. I personally would just stick to TutorialsPoint, Wikipedia, and StackOverflow.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good reading which could be better
Reviewed in the United States on 18 October 2010

Mark Allen Weiss's "Data Structures and Problem Solving Using Java, 3rd Edition" is a good reading if you're already familiar with Java and a few other programming languages, and want to start learning about data structures in a structured fashion. The text is easy to read and understand, and is accompanied by a good plenty of examples. Even if Java is not your primary language, the author reviews basic Java programming in the first few chapters in a way that you can learn/remember most of the important features of Java.

"Data Structures and Problem Solving Using Java, 3rd Edition" is a good reading and I advise it to people who want to learn about data structures. Nevertheless, it could be a better reading. Weiss is also the author of similar book for C++, and it appears that he has simply ported the C++ examples of that book to "Data Structures and Problem Solving Using Java". Therefore, some of the examples don't follow a good coding style or are not compliant with the traditions in Java programming. The author also skips the proofs of some theorems in the interest of space, but it would be a better idea to provide them as an appendix at the end of the book.

I absolutely love this book. Some of the best code examples I have seen in a Computer Science book. It flows very nicely and has very good explanations of why one way is bettter than another.
