This is the first Visual Basic.NET (VB.NET) book to provide a comprehensive discussion of the major data structures and algorithms. Here, instead of having to translate material on C++ or Java, the professional or student VB.NET programmer will and a tutorial on how to use data structures and algorithms and a reference for implementation using VB.NET for data structures and algorithms from the .NET Framework Class Library as well as those that must be developed by the programmer.
This book is written primarily as a practical overview of the data structures and algorithms all serious computer programmers need to know and understand. Given this, there is no formal analysis of the data structures and algorithms covered in the book. Hence, there is not a single mathematical formula and not one mention of Big O analysis (for the latter the reader is referred to any of the books listed in the bibliography). Instead, the various data structures and algorithms are presented as problem-solving tools. We use simple timing tests to compare the performance of the data structures and algorithms discussed in the book.
This book can be used in both beginning and advanced computer programming courses that use the VB.NET language and, most importantly, by the professional Visual Basic programmer.
