Data structures and algorithms are fundamental concepts in computer science and programming, forming the backbone of efficient and effective software development. A data structure is a way of organizing and storing data in a computer so that it can be accessed and used efficiently. They are essential for organizing and processing data, solving complex problems, and optimizing computational tasks. It is a logical or mathematical representation of data, as well as the implementation in a computer program.
Types of data structures?
There are mainly two types of data structures: 1. Linear data structures. and 2. Non-linear data structures.
Linear data structures.
- Array
- Linked List
- Stack
- Queue
Non-linear data structures
- Trees and
- Graphs
