Download Coursera – Foundations of Data Structures and Algorithms Specialization 2024-5

Description

Foundations of Data Structures and Algorithms Specialization, the training course on the basics of data structures and algorithms is published by Coursera Academy. Building fast and highly functional data science applications requires a detailed knowledge of how data is organized in the computer and how to effectively perform operations such as sorting, searching, and indexing. This course will teach the fundamentals of data structures and algorithms with a focus on data science applications. This specialization is targeted for students who are interested in programming and process a large amount of data (expertise in data science is not required) and are familiar with the principles of programming in Python. We will learn about various data structures including arrays, hash tables, heaps, trees and graphs along with algorithms including sorting, searching, traversal and shortest path. This specialization can be considered as part of CU’s MS in Data Science or MS in Computer Science offered on the Coursera platform. Admission is based on performance in three introductory courses, not academic record. CU degrees on Coursera are ideal for recent graduates or working professionals. Students will solve data structure problems by analyzing and designing algorithms for searching, sorting and indexing, creating trees and graphs, and dealing with inconsistencies. Courses also include conceptual algorithm design issues as well as opportunities to program data structures/algorithms in the Python programming language.
