Course Information
Course Overview
Explore the possibilities of C# for developing a variety of applications
Data structures allow us to organize data efficiently. They are critical to various problems and their suitable implementation can provide a complete solution that acts like reusable code. In this course, you will learn how to use various data structures while developing in the C# language as well as how to implement some of the most common algorithms used with such data structures.
Initially, you will get to know arrays, lists, dictionaries, and sets together with real-world examples of your application. Then you will learn how to create and use stacks and queues. In the following part of the book, more complex data structures will be introduced—trees and graphs—together with some algorithms for searching the shortest path in a graph. We will also discuss how to organize code in a manageable, consistent, and extendable way. By the end of the course, you will have learned how to build components that are easy to understand, debug, and use in different applications.

When discussing value and reference types it would be helpful to explain how a copy is made from a value type.Both types can be manipulated and examples would help.

I do appreciate the topics that the instructor covers, and it does help to give a foundation. However, the instructor seems to paste an example and then just move onto the next slide without explaining what he's referring to. The topics covered are good, but he will paste big blocks of code and go through it quickly. It would be preferable if he could write the code as he talks, so that we can follow along in our own visual studio.

Fast Paced. I knew one specific way of implementing "Delegates" - now with this quick and no explanation video on different ways of implementing, I got confused. It would be great if the author had another in-depth course of these concepts, and he could refer the reader to it.
