As an experienced JavaScript developer moving to server-side programming, you need to implement classic data structures and algorithms associated with conventional object-oriented languages like C# and Java. This practical guide shows you how to work hands-on with a variety of storage mechanisms -- including linked lists, stacks, queues, and graphs --  within the constraints of the JavaScript environment. 

Determine which data structures and algorithms are most appropriate for the problems youΓÇÖre trying to solve, and understand the tradeoffs when using them in a JavaScript program. An overview of the JavaScript features used throughout the book is also included. 


This book covers: 

 Arrays and lists   : the most common data structures 
 Stacks and queues  : more complex list-like data structures 
 Linked lists       : how they overcome the shortcomings of arrays 
 Dictionaries       : storing data as key-value pairs 
 Hashing            : good for quick insertion and retrieval 
 Sets               : useful for storing unique elements that appear only once 
 Binary Trees       : storing data in a hierarchical manner 
 Graphs and
 graph algorithms   : ideal for modeling networks 
 Algorithms         : including those that help you sort or search data 
 Advanced algorithms: dynamic programming and greedy algorithms
