“The beauty of Dataquest is that it starts at the most basic level, so a true beginner can understand the concepts”
In this course, you’ll learn about recursion, binary trees, binary heaps, and more. By the end, you’ll be able to explain the difference between iteration and recursion, build a binary heap to query large datasets, implement and query a dataset using Binary Search trees, and more.
Best of all, you’ll learn by doing — you’ll practice and get feedback directly in the browser. At the end of the course, you’ll complete a guided project in which you’ll use a B-Tree to implement a key-value datastore in Python.
