Build great Software and Understand Software engineering in C# What you'll learn: Understand Core Concepts of Software EngineeringUnderstand Sorting AlgorithmsUnderstand Data StructuresUnderstand Software Engineering In order to create Efficient Algorithms, you must start from bottom. Learn the important concepts of problem solving and Software engineering. And then use the knowledge you gain to create your own algorithms. Algorithms are essential part of computer science and programing. Every program is executing some Algorithm. So it is important to know how to create efficient algorithms.I think every programmerexpierienced null pointer exceptionor something like that. These errors are not created by "not knowing the programming language" but they are created because the algorithmis incorrect. So what do you think is more important, Algorithms or programming language ?By learning Software engineering concepts. You will be able to create algorithms. Ofcourse it takes also practice, but learning software engineering is first stepto better algorithms and better analythic thinking.In this course I will go through Software engineering( algorithms and data structures, problem solving)In Sorting Algorithms section you will learn:Selection SortBubble SortRecursionMerge SortQuick SortIn Data Structures section you will learn:What is Data StructureBinary Search TreeAVL treeLinked ListTrieHash TableIn Problem Solving section you will learn:Divide and ConquerDynamic programmingGreedy AproachBacktrackingAnd I will explin these techniques on:0-1 Knapsack problemKruskal's algorithmsSo do you want to learn software engineering ?
