For one- or two-semester courses in data structures (CS-2) in the departments of Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Business, and Management Information Systems. This is the most student-friendly data structures text available that introduces ADTs in individual, brief chapters — each with pedagogical tools to help students master each concept. Using the latest features of Java, this unique object-oriented presentation makes a clear distinction between specification and implementation to simplify learning, while providing maximum classroom flexibility. Visit author Frank Carrano's Making it Real blog - a discussion with instructors and students about teaching and learning computer science. Thorough, up-to-date Java coverage — Includes more features of Java, including generic data types, assertions, enumeration, for-each loops, and aspects of the Java Class Library, with extensive support within the text and appendices. Program comments use the javadoc style.
Approachable format and content organization — Organizes material into small segments that focus a reader’s attention and provide greater instructional flexibility. Each ADT is introduced in its own chapter, including examples or applications — Provides for instructor flexibility while retaining the advantage of separation of specification and implementation. Flexible and extensive assignments — Features a variety of exercises and programming projects that can be used in- class or assigned as homework, as well as self-test questions throughout each chapter. Visually appealing — Attractive design includes many figures to aid student comprehension. Notes — Important ideas are presented or summarized in highlighted paragraphs that are meant to be read in line with the surrounding text. Programming Tips —Suggestions to improve or facilitate programming are featured as soon as they become relevant. Examples — Numerous examples illuminate new concepts.
A Problem Solved — Large examples are presented in the form of “A Problem Solved, ” in which a problem is posed and its solution is discussed, designed, and implemented. Design Decisions — To give readers insight into the design choices that one could make when formulating a solution, “Design Decision” elements lay out such options, along with the rationale behind the choice made for a particular example. These discussions are often in the context of one of the A Problem Solved examples. Self-Test Questions — Throughout each chapter are questions, integrated within the text, that reinforce the concept just presented and help students understand the material. The reader must pause and reflect on the material to answer the question(s). Solutions to the self-test questions are provided at the end of each chapter. VideoNotes are step-by-step video tutorials specifically designed to enhance the programming concepts presented in Carrano, Data Structures and Abstractions with Java, 3e.

Java Basic: Exercise-11 with Solution. Write a Java program to print the area and perimeter of a circle. In geometry, the area enclosed by a circle of radius r is πr 2.Here the Greek letter π represents a constant, approximately equal to 3.14159, which is equal to the ratio of the circumference of any circle to its diameter.
Students can view the entire problem-solving process outside of the classroom—when they need help the most. VideoNotes are available with the purchase of a new copy of select titles. Go to www.pearsonhighered.com/videonotes for a brief VideoNotes demo. Exercises and Programming Projects — Further practice is available by solving the exercises and programming projects at the end of each chapter. Complete support package — Includes Solutions Manuals, animations of various data structures, Lab Manual, and PowerPoint slides. Companion Web site – Provides all the Java code from the text, PowerPoint slides, and animations. Frank’s Making it Real blog extends his textbooks and lectures to a lively discussion with instructors and students about teaching and learning computer science.
