A collection of algorithms implemented in Java

Dave's Algorithm Collection

This repository is a collection of common algorithms that are taught in first year algorithms classes at ETH Zurich:

• the Algorithms and Datastructures class
• the Algorithms and Probability class
• Parallel Programming

All algorithms are implemented in Java and most of them are NOT thread safe.

On the state of these algorithms

These algorithms were implemented with the goal to experiment with them and many of them were implemented from scratch from my memory (implementing what I could still remember from class). This repo is by no means complete / tested / safe to use. Seriously: Using this code is really dangerous. However, if you want to take a glimpse feel free to use my code as long as it complies with the MIT license.

Implemented Algorithms:

Datastructures

You can find more datastructures below under the Graphs section

• AVL Tree
• LinkedList
