Abstraction - Michael Goodrich, Roberto Tamassia, Michael Goldwasser

This quote was added by tamatotodile
The notion of abstraction is to distill a complicated system down to its most fundamental parts. Typically, describing the parts of a system involves naming them and explaining their functionality. Applying the abstraction paradigm to the design of data structures gives rise to abstract data types (ADTs). An ADT is a mathematical model of a data structure that specifies the type of data stored, the operations supported on them, and the types of parameters of the operations.
