Purely Functional Data Structures
by Chris Okasaki
Publisher: Carnegie Mellon University 1996
ISBN/ASIN: 0521663504
Number of pages: 162
Description:
This book describes data structures from the point of view of functional languages, with examples, and presents design techniques that allow programmers to develop their own functional data structures. The author includes both classical data structures, such as red-black trees and binomial queues, and a host of new data structures developed exclusively for functional languages.
