Description
In the 1990s, financial markets in the United States boomed. The Dow Jones Industrial
Index—a widely quoted index of the values of 30 large corporations (see Chapter 8 )—rose
from a level of 2,800 in January 1990 to more than 11,000 by the end of the decade; this
compares to a move from 100 at its inception in 1906 to 2,800 eighty-four years later.
In the early 2000s, as a result of an economic downturn in the United States and elsewhere,
this index fell back below 10,000. The index rose to over 14,000 in July 2007,
but (because of an increasing mortgage market credit crunch, particularly the subprime
mortgage market) fell back to below 13,000 within a month of hitting the all-time high. By
2008, problems in the subprime mortgage market escalated to a full blown financial crisis
and the worst recession in the United States since the Great Depression. The Dow Jones
Industrial Arerage (DJIA) fell to 6,547 in March 2009 before recovering, along with the
economy, to over 11,000 in April 2010.

Design & Analysis of Algorithm
Trending!
We study data structures so that we can learn to write more efficient programs. But
why must programs be efficient when new computers are faster every year? The
reason is that our ambitions grow with our capabilities. Instead of rendering efficiency needs obsolete, the modern revolution in computing power and storage capability merely raises the efficiency stakes as we computerize more complex tasks.
The quest for program efficiency need not and should not conflict with sound
design and clear coding. Creating efficient programs has little to do with “programming tricks” but rather is based on good organization of information and good algorithms. A programmer who has not mastered the basic principles of clear design
is not likely to write efficient programs. Conversely, “software engineering” cannot
be used as an excuse to justify inefficient performance. Generality in design can
and should be achieved without sacrificing performance, but this can only be done
if the designer understands how to measure performance and does so as an integral
part of the design and implementation process. Most computer science curricula
recognize that good programming skills begin with a strong emphasis on fundamental software engineering principles. Then, once a programmer has learned the
principles of clear program design and implementation, the next step is to study the
effects of data organization and algorithms on program efficiency
