Prerequisites
IB015 Non-Imperative Programming || IB111 Foundations of Programming
The students should comprehend the basic notions on the level of IB111 Introduction to Programming and IB000 Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science Students should be able to: understand and apply basic constructs of programming languages (e.g., conditions, loops, functions, basic data types) in Python, know principles of recursion, and several basic algorithms. Students should know the basic mathematical notions; understand the logical structure of mathematical statements and mathematical proofs, specially mathematical induction; know discrete mathematical structures such as finite sets, relations, functions, and graph including their applications in informatics. IB114 is a lightweight version of IB002.
Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.

Course objectives
The course presents basic techniques of the analysis of algorithms, data structures, and operations. Students should correctly apply the basic data structures and algorithms as well as apply the algorithm design and analysis techniques when designing new algorithms. Students implement their algorithms in programming language Python.
Learning outcomes
After enrolling the course students are able to:
- actively use and modify basic sorting algorithms and graph algorithms,
- actively used basic techniques for designing algorithms (divide et impera, recursion) and design simple algorithms,
- actively used and modify basic static and dynamic data structures,
- employ time complexity and correctness of algorithms,
- analyze time complexity and prove the correctness of simple iterative and recursive algorithms,
- implement algorithms in the selected programming language (Python).
Syllabus
  • Basic analysis of algorithms: The correctness of algorithms, input and output conditions, partial correctness, convergence, verification.
  • Length of computation, algorithm complexity, problem complexity. Asymptotical analysis of time and space complexity, growth of functions.
  • Algorithm design techniques. Divide et impera and recursive algorithms.
  • Fundamental data structures: lists, queues. Representation of sets, hash tables. Binary heaps. Binary search trees, balanced trees (B trees, Red-black trees).
  • Sorting algorithms: quicksort, mergesort, heapsort, lower bound for the time complexity of sorting.
  • Graphs and their representation. Graph search. Depth-first traversal, topological sort, strongly connected components. Breadth-first traversal, bipartite graphs. Shortest paths, algorithm Bellman-Ford, Dijkstra's algorithm.
