Learning JavaScript Data Structures and Algorithms - Second Edition

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 9. Graphs

In this chapter, you will learn about another nonlinear data structure called graph. This will be the last data structure we will cover before diving into sorting and searching algorithms.

This chapter will cover a considerable part of the wonderful applications of graphs. Since this is a vast topic, we could write a book like this just to dive into the amazing world of graphs.
