Book for DS and Algo in Java

[Pranav Bhatt]

Hi all,

Could any one recommend me best book on "Data Structure and Algorithm" on java.

Thanks to all in advance..

In my experience, the best books generally aren't tied to a specific language but use pseudo code. Which I think is preferable, because there's nothing Java-specific about either data structures or algorithms.

I recommend the one by Cormen/Leiserson/Rivest.

Thanks Ulf. But was wondering that it would be beneficial for a beginner in Data Structures in Algorithm? But as you have mentioned it , i would like to see it before going for one.
Some one advised me "Data Structures and Algorithms in Java by Robert Lafore". Any idea on this?
Once again thanks for taking off your time to reply

There is a book by Niklaus Wirth which can be downloaded free from the internet.
