Data Structures and Algorithms Made Easy in Java: Data Structure and Algorithmic Puzzles Review: 5 Stars Very Practical - I'm really enjoying this book. My skills on algorithms were a little bit rusty since I'm graduated for some time (around 17 years ago). The point is that nowadays you have all of these data structures already built-in inside wherever language you pick (Java, C#, Python...), so this makes you become somehow "lazy" and this is not good after all ... mainly when a complex project arrives on your desk or when you want to join a cool open source project that has several sorts of data structures inside, like the Linux Kernel, without this knowledge you can't basically get in a project of such magnitude. I'll gave 05 stars for this book due to the following: 1. The book is very objective and you don't need to read tons of pages before a practical example. 2. The author explains visually every algorithm what really helps because I'm very used to think "visually". 3. The book has a lot of exercises so once you grasp the concepts you'll be faced with exercises and detailed explanations. 4. The book arms you with knowledge to pick the best data structure, even when your language/library already gives you one. 5. The author maintains a nice website with videos explaining the concepts of the book. 6. Comparing to other data structures books this one is the most practical in my opinion. Review: Torn - I'm torn about my review of this book. I read the book cover to cover over the past few weeks. I also interviewed with both desertcart and Microsoft last week. The pro: I WAS asked questions at both desertcart and Microsoft that are presented in this book. Because of my reading, I knew where to go with the solutions. I was also able to use things I learned in this book to find solutions to questions I was asked that aren't directly discussed in the book. The con: There are SO many formatting/content issues in the book. I would venture to guess that there are 5 - 10 typos/grammar mistakes per page in the book, some so severe that they change the intended meaning of the sentence/example. Additionally, there are at least a few places in the book that the code simply doesn't run due to errors in the code itself. It seems to me that the book would do well to have a native English speaking person proofread it, as well as someone to double check the code samples. I would have absolutely given this book five stars had it not been for the errors. Normally an error or two wouldn't bother me that much, but there are so many of them here that they're extremely difficult to overlook. However, at the end of the day, the content in this book DID help me be prepared for the interviews. So, if you're preparing for an interview and don't mind working through the errors, this is an excellent resource. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #292,975 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #8 in Beginner's Guides to Java Programming #87 in Computer Systems Analysis & Design (Books) #259 in Software Development (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars (1,376) | | Dimensions | 8.5 x 0.93 x 11 inches | | Edition | 2nd ed. | | ISBN-10 | 8192107558 | | ISBN-13 | 978-8192107554 | | Item Weight | 2.1 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 412 pages | | Publication date | August 20, 2013 | | Publisher | CareerMonk Publications | ## Images ![Data Structures and Algorithms Made Easy in Java: Data Structure and Algorithmic Puzzles - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91xUMlj0ooL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Stars Very Practical *by M***S on November 24, 2016* I'm really enjoying this book.

En estos tiempos hay muchos libros en el mercado y es dificil poder elegir uno perfecto en todos los sentidos. I hope this book help me in my new adventure! One thing that I would really like before buying a book is to be able to read the table of contents and you can hardly ever see it before... so in my reviews I always try to leave photos of the table of contents of books I bought for other future buyers. It came with a slightly wrinkled cover, but I imagine it has to do with transportation. ## Frequently Bought Together - Data Structures and Algorithms Made Easy in Java: Data Structure and Algorithmic Puzzles - Cracking the Coding Interview: 189 Programming Questions and Solutions (Cracking the Interview & Career) - System Design Interview – An insider's guide --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/11885160-data-structures-and-algorithms-made-easy-in-java-data-structure](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/11885160-data-structures-and-algorithms-made-easy-in-java-data-structure) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-04-28*
