Description: BHSawesome2 is a AP CSA textbook adapted from CSAwesome2 for use at Berkeley High School in Berkeley, California. It follow the latest (2025) revision of the AP Computer Science A Course and Exam Description but presents the material in a somewhat different order than CSAwesome2 and does not attempt to mirror the unit and topic structure of the College Board Course and Exam Description. If you want a text whose units and topic numbers line up exactly with those in the College Board outline, you will want to use CSAwesome2.

Description: The understanding of data structures and algorithms is central to understanding computer science. Presented in C++, this textbook is designed to serve as a text for a first course on data structures and algorithms, typically taught as the second course in the computer science curriculum. We cover abstract data types and basic data structures, writing algorithms to solve problems, as well as using data structures to solve classic problems. The first chapter offers a review of basic C++, so this book is most appropriate for use after either a first programming course in C++ or after first programming course in any language.
