Top Data Structures ?

Along with above algorithms, every computer science student is expected to implement below data structures ?

Linked List Implementation | Part 1Linked List Implementation | Part 2

Insertion in BSTSearch given key in BSTDeletion from BST

Stack, Queue

Min Heap and Max Heap

Graph Implementation using STLGraph Implementation in C++ without using STL

Trie Implementation | Insert, Search and DeleteMemory efficient Trie Implementation using Map | Insert, Search and Delete

One is also expected to be familiar with other programming paradigms like Backtracking, Dynamic Programming, Divide & Conquer, Greedy Algorithms and concepts like Hashing and Recursion.
