Data structures and algorithms 2

What it covers

This unit deepens study of algorithms and data structures by moving from introductory programming patterns to more formal design, analysis, and proof-oriented reasoning. It covers advanced data structures, graph and numerical algorithms, recursion, and systematic analysis of best-case, average-case, and worst-case time and space complexity. It also introduces selected advanced topics such as amortised reasoning and more sophisticated problem-solving strategies. You will learn to compare algorithmic paradigms, justify correctness, and implement efficient solutions to non-trivial computational problems, building the intellectual bridge from foundational coding to essential computer science knowledge.
