If you’re using JavaScript on the server-side, you need to implement classic data structures that conventional object-oriented programs (such as C# and Java) provide. This practical book shows you how to use linked lists, stacks, queues, and graphs, as well as classic algorithms for sorting and searching data in your JavaScript programs.

Each chapter includes at least one real-world application of the data structure or data structures discussed, along with exercises that help you further explore the practical application of various data structures and algorithms.
