It sounds like you are wanting something akin to
Numerical Recipes:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...X0DER&v=glance
However, note that
good books on data structures will be language agnostic
(as they should be...). If you are wanting meaty, comprehensive, & dense, Cormen's
Introduction to Algorithms is perhaps the best:
http://www.amazon.com/Introduction-A...5736157&sr=1-1
Note that Cormen,
et. al. approaches both algorithms & the data structures needed to implement such algorithms from a traditional mathematical standpoint. As such, this book is frequently used in graduate-level coursework. It is also a timeless text, much in the same manner as Knuth's
The Art of Computer Programming:
