7、st and last element and each interior item has a unique successor. A linear list is a general description for structures that include arrays, stacks, queues, and linked lists.线性表是顺序访问的对象集合。它只有唯一一个头元素和一个尾元素，中间各项都有唯一一个后继。线性表是数组、堆栈、队列和链表等结构的统称。2. *顺序表 sequential list: Sequential list is a kind of stora

8、ge structure of linear lists that stores elements in a sequential order. The structure holds an arbitrary number of items. The size of the list is modified by adding or deleting an item from the list, and the items in the list are referenced by their positions. 顺序表是线性表的一种存储结构，这种线性表的结构存放着任意个数的元素。表的大小

9、通过增加或删除表中的元素来改变，表中元素通过其位置来访问。In a linear list, the first element occurs at the head or front of the list, and the last element occurs at the rear of the list. Each element except the first and the last has a unique predecessor and a unique successor.在线性表中，第一个元素位于表头，最后一个元素是表尾，除第一个元素和最后一个元素外，每一个元素都有唯一

10、的前趋和唯一的后继。3. 头节点 head node or header: An empty linked list contains a node, which has an uninitialized data field. This node is called the header and initially points to itself. The role of the header is to point the first real node in the list and hence the header is often referred to as a sentinel

11、 node.一个空链表中包含一个结点，它有一个未经初始化的数据域。该结点叫头结点，初始化时它指向自己。头结点的作用是指向表中第一个“真正的”结点，因此它常被称为“哨位”结点。4. 有序表 ordered list: An ordered list is a special type of list that maintains the elements in ascending order.有序表是一种特殊的表，其元素按升序排列。5. 双向链表 doubly linked lists 或bi-directional linked lists:6.

14、ck is a list of items that are accessible at only one end of the list. Items are added or deleted from the list only at the top of the stack. A stack is said to have LIFO（last-in/first-out） ordering.栈是一种只能在表的一端访问元素的表，其元素只能从栈顶端增加或删除。出入栈的顺序为后进先出（LIFO, last-in/first-out）。A stack structure features oper

15、ations that add and delete items. A Push operation adds an item to the top of the stack. The operation of removing an element from the stack is said to pop the stack.栈结构就出增加和删除元素的操作。压入（push）操作往栈顶增加一个元素。从栈顶删除一个元素的操作称为弹出（pop）。2. 递归过程 recursive procedure: An algorithm is defined recursively if its defi

16、nition consists of:（1）One or more stopping conditions which can be evaluated for certain parameters.（2）A recursive step in which a current value in the algorithm can be defined in terms of a previous value. Eventually, the recursive step must lead to stopping conditions. 如果一种算法的定义组成如下，则它就是递归的。（1）对应于

17、某些参数可以求值的一个或多个终止条件。（2）一个递归步骤，它根据先前某次值求当前值。递归步骤最终必须导致终止条件。3. *队列 queue: A queue is a data structure that stores elements in a list and permits data access only at the two ends of the list. An element is inserted at the rear of the list and is deleted from the front of the list.队列是以表形式存放元素，但只允许在表的两端访问

18、元素的数据结构，其元素只能在表尾插入（入队），在表头删除（出队）。Elements are removed from the queue in the same order in which they are stored and hence a queue provides FIFO （first-in/first-out） or FCFS（first-come /first-served） ordering.队列删除元素的顺序和元素到达队列的顺序相同，可称为先进先出（FIFO, first-in/first-out）或先到先服务（FCFS，first-come/first-served）。

19、4. 优先级队列 priority queue: A queue is a data structure that provides a FIFO ordering of elements. The queue removes the “oldest” item from the list. Applications often require a modified version of queue storage in which the item of highest priority is removed from the list. This structure is called a

20、 priority queue.一个队列是以FIFO顺序访问元素的数据结构，它从中删除“最老”的元素。实际应用中常需要另外一种队列，它删除优先级最高的元素，这种结构我们称为优先级队列。第四节 串和数组Section 4 Strings and Arrays*子串 substring主串 primary string 空串 null string空格串 blank string文本编辑 text editing模式 pattern*三元组表 list of 3-tuples三元组顺序表 sequential list of 3-tuples十字链表 orthogonal list *特殊矩阵 s

A two-dimensional array, often called a matrix, is a structured data type that is created by nesting one-dimensional arrays. Items are accessed by row and columns in

24、dices. 数组是一个数据集的例子。它定义了一个可以存放多个相同类型元素的结构化数据类型。一维数组是一个具有有限个相同数据类型元素的顺序表（同构数组）。二维数组通常成为矩阵，是一种由多个一维数组合成的结构化数据类型。其元素通过行和列下标存取。The element type of an array can include not only the built-in data type such as int or char but also user-defined class type.数组元素的类型不但可以是原始类型如整型或字符型，也可以是用户定义的类类型。4. 一维数组的存储 stor

A tree structure is characterized as a set of nodes that originates from a unique starting node called the root. Each node in a tree is the root of a subtree, which is defined by the node and all desc

30、endants of the node. 树是一种由根发散的节点所组成的层次结构由若干个节点和叶子组成的。它的特点是它是由唯一的起始点“根（root）”开始的“节点”集合。树中的每个节点都是一棵“子树”的根，这个子树是由节点和节点的后代定义的。2. *二叉树 binary tree: A binary tree is a restricted class of tree in which each parent has no more than two children.A binary tree is a recursive structure. Each node is the root of its own subtree and has children, which are roots of the tree called the left and right subtrees of the node, respectively.叉树是一种特定的树，在这类树中，每个双亲的孩子数不超过两个
