Learning outcomes
The course is targeted to the basic data structures, especially is focussed on the list, queue, stack, linked list, hash table, index, searching tree structures and on the algorithms over this structures. Attention is paid not only to the formal description of above mentioned structures and algorithms, but also to its practical implementation.

Prerequisites
unspecified

Assessment methods and criteria
unspecified
Credit requirements - active participation in tutorials (attendance) - presentation of solution of homework assignments (implementation of selected algorithms) in a chosen programming language (e.g. C#) and their explanation The exam is oral and takes about 20-30 minutes. Theoretical knowledge and the ability to describe and analyze the selected algorithms (including determination of their properties) are examined.
