Fabulous Adventures in Data Structures and Algorithms (Manning)

In Fabulous Adventures in Data Structures and Algorithms, language designer and C# legend Eric Lippert explores exciting, esoteric, and exotic data structures and algorithms that will expand your programming toolbox, and your horizons.

Eric Lippert

Data structures and algorithms form the foundation of programming, but understanding how and why they work is what sets great engineers apart. This book takes a hands-on, example-driven approach to help readers develop that intuition. Each chapter explores a key data structure or algorithm, showing not just how to implement it, but also how to reason about performance, trade-offs, and real-world use cases.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Implement and analyze essential data structures such as trees, graphs, and hash tables

  • Understand algorithmic complexity and performance tuning in practice

  • Apply classical algorithms to modern computing problems

  • Develop a deeper, more intuitive understanding of how data flows through your applications

The book blends clarity with depth—making complex ideas approachable without oversimplifying. Whether you’re a working developer looking to strengthen your fundamentals or a student preparing for technical interviews, it offers insights you can immediately apply in code and architecture design.
