Annotation
Big-O notation. Algorithms with numbers - cryptography, universal hashing, divide-and-conquer algorithms, recurrence relations, the fast Fourier transform. Sorting algorithms - mergesort, insert sort, selection sort, heap sort, quick sort. Graphs - depth-first search in undirected graph, depth-first search in directed graphs, strongly connected components. Paths in graphs - distances, breadth-first search, lengths on edges, Dijkstra's algorithm, Priority queue implementations, Shortest paths in the presence of negative edges, shortest paths in dags. Greedy algorithms - minimum spanning trees, Huffman encoding, Horn formulas.

Structure of tutorial
Introduction into running applications in 308 laboratory, students' accounts, students will be submitted 3 practical excercises to solve.
Simple application. Constants. Simple types, structured types incl. arrays, records, sets, files. Variables. Basics of programming language.
Sorting. Handling events and exceptions.
Printing from Java applications, I/O operations.
Dynamic data structures: stack, queue, linked list, tree.
Binary tree, AVL tree, B-tree.
Literarture
Study materials including lecture slides and preparations are provided by lecturer.
Requirements
The course strongly assumes prior knowledge on level of course Algorithms 1.
For the Exams: knowledge prescribed in lectures. The exam has a practical and oral parts. The practical part of the exam - write and debug a simple program on given task.
For Assessment, the student receies three tasks to program.
Keywords
