No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
In this tutorial for VisualBasic.NET programmers, data structures and algorithms are presented as problem-solving tools that do not require translations from C++ or Java. McMillan (computer information systems, Pulaski Technical College) explains arrays, ArrayLists, linked lists, hash tables, dictionaries, trees, graphs, and sorting and searching with object-oriented representations. He is consistently practical, using, for example, timing tests rather than Big O analysis to compare the performance of data structures and algorithms.

This is a decent read, teaches you some important topics like collections, strings, etc. But if you buy this book, supplement your reading with a complete VB book.
Including a tutorial on how to use data structures and algorithms and a reference for implementation using VB.NET and the .NET Framework Class Library, this is the first Visual Basic.NET book to provide a comprehensive discussion of the major data structures and algorithms. Michael McMillan presents
Algorithms are at the heart of every nontrivial computer application, and algorithmics is a modern and active area of computer science. Every computer scientist and every professional programmer should know about the basic algorithmic toolbox: structures that allow efficient organization and retriev
