Byte-Sized-Chunks: Graph Algorithms and Problems in Java

Djisktra, Prim, Kruskal, Bellman-Ford, the topological sort - all will make sense now!

What's Inside

Course Description

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

Mail us about anything and we will always reply :-)

What are the requirements?

  • Basic knowledge of programming is assumed, preferably in Java

What am I going to get from this course?

  • Over 28 lectures and 5 hours of content!
  • Design and implement software using canonical graph algorithms - Djikstra, Prim, Kruskal, Bellman Ford and topological sort
  • Understand the use-cases for the common graph algorithm

What is the target audience?

  • Nope! Please don't enroll for this class if you have already enrolled for our 15-hour course 'From 0 to 1: Data Structures and Algorithms'
  • Yep! Computer Science and Engineering grads who are looking to really visualise data structures, and internalise how they work
  • Yep! Experienced software engineers who are looking to refresh important fundamental concepts
  • Yep! MBA graduates or business professionals who are looking to move to a heavily quantitative role
