Java algorithms
Scott Robert Ladd · 1997
From the Publisher: In the first book/CD-ROM of its kind,algorithm guru Scott Ladd reveals how Java can implement important data structures to create quick,efficient,professional applications and applets. From sorting and containers to hash tables and file I/O,developers (especially those migrating from C++) will learn how to wring new levels of performance from Java. CD-ROM contains all the compiled source code from the book,Sun Microsystem's JDK 1. 1. 4,and a trial version of Visual J++ and other third-party Java tools. Part of the Java Masters series. Wring new levels of performance from Java! I've written several books about algorithm design,and this book/CD-ROM bring you my experience in the form of several Java packages. You can get good performance from Java; a well-written Java applet will outperform a poorly designed C++ program. That's what this book is all about. The Author. Scott Robert Ladd is renowned for writing portable and efficient code in C and C++. Now he has translated his ideas into Java and delivers them to you in this innovative,easy-to use package. Whether you're already migrating from C++ to Java,or beginning to explore the possibilities,use this book and CD-ROM to: Get a quick handle on the code differences between Java and C/C++Understand how Java implements key data structures and algorithmsMaximize Java's powerful array of tools for developing user interfacesCreate quick-full-featured,professional applications and appletsSpeed up applet performance,which varies dramatically from platform to platformDiscover a star chart plotter Java application written by the author Additional time-saversinclude complete applets and applications that demonstrate the packages developed by the author,as well as all of Ladd's compiled source code right on the CD-ROM.
