Learner Reviews & Feedback for Data Structures and Performance by University of California San Diego
About the Course
break when applications process real, large data sets. Efficiency is critical, but how do we achieve it, and how do we even measure it? This is
an intermediate Java course. We recommend this course to learners who have previous experience in software development or a background
in computer science, and in particular, we recommend that you have taken the first course in this specialization (which also requires some
previous experience with Java). In this course, you will use and analyze data structures that are used in industry-level applic...
