In this module you will learn more about what algorithms are, which data structures are commonly used to implement algorithms and some practical tools for analysing, developing and testing your algorithms.

After this module you will be able to implement & apply common list, dictionary and graph algorithms, recognise where such algorithms are applied in other software, and have improved problem-solving skills overall.
