A Common-Sense Guide to Data Structures and Algorithms, Second Edition: affect vs effect (315)

In the final paragraph on page 315, the text reads, “…that will have no affect on the speed of our search.”
The word “effect” should be used in this instance instead of “affect.”
The corrected sentence would read, “…that will have no effect on the speed of our search.”
