Data-Structures-and-Performance

Coursera Object Oriented Programming in Java

Duke University and University of California San Diego

These modules were developed using skeletal programs provided by the UCSD Mooc team. They are part of the Data Structures and Performance course offered by Cousera. The development I performed included:

1. Working with Java's built-in classes for fundamental data structures including: String, LinkedList, TreeSet, HashSet, and HashMap.
2. Implementing fundamental data structures from scratch including Linked Lists and Tries.
3. Analyzing the performance of code, using Big-O notation as well as through benchmarking experiments.
4. Comparing and contrasting the performance of different data structures to select the most appropriate for a task.
5. Write JUnit tests to ensure the correctness of the code.
6. Implement several algorithms for generating and processing text.
