Overview of this book

This book begins by covering basics of the JavaScript language and introducing ECMAScript 7, before gradually moving on to the current implementations of ECMAScript 6. You will gain an in-depth knowledge of how hash tables and set data structure functions, as well as how trees and hash maps can be used to search files in a HD or represent a database. This book is an accessible route deeper into JavaScript. Graphs being one of the most complex data structures you’ll encounter, we’ll also give you a better understanding of why and how graphs are largely used in GPS navigation systems in social networks. Toward the end of the book, you’ll discover how all the theories presented by this book can be applied in real-world solutions while working on your own computer networks and Facebook searches.

Preface

Chapter 12. Algorithm Complexity

In this chapter, we will to cover the famous big-O notation (introduced in Chapter 10 , Sorting and Searching Algorithms) and the NP-Completeness theory and also take a look at how we can have some fun with algorithms and boost our knowledge to improve our programming and problem-solving skills.
