• Use Big O notation, the primary tool for evaluating algorithms, to measure the efficiency of your code.
• Find out how your choice of arrays, linked lists, and hash tables can dramatically affect the code you write.
• Use recursion to solve tricky problems and create algorithms that run exponentially faster than the alternatives.
• Dig into advanced data structures such as binary trees and graphs to help scale specialized applications such as social networks and mapping software.
