Welcome to the Data Structure Tutorial! 🚀
Data structures are fundamental to efficient programming and problem-solving. Let's explore key concepts and examples together.
Common Data Structures
Here are some basic data structures you'll encounter:
Arrays 📊
Ordered collections of elements with O(1) access time.Linked Lists 🔗
Dynamic sequences where each element points to the next.Stacks & Queues ⛔️
Stacks follow LIFO (Last In, First Out), while queues use FIFO (First In, First Out).Trees 🌳
Hierarchical structures with root nodes and child nodes.Hash Tables 🔐
Key-value pairs stored using hash functions for fast retrieval.
Use Cases
Data Structure | Application |
---|---|
Arrays | Storing fixed-size data like a list of user IDs |
Linked Lists | Implementing dynamic memory allocation |
Trees | Organizing file systems or databases |
Hash Tables | Caching frequently accessed data |
