Data Structures
Welcome to this presentation on data structures! We'll explore arrays, linked lists,
stacks, queues, trees, graphs, and hash tables. Get ready to dive into the world of
data!

Arrays & Linked Lists
Arrays Linked Lists
An ordered collection of elements that can be accessed and A collection of nodes that hold data and a pointer to the next
manipulated using an index. Perfect for storing large amounts node. Great for inserting or deleting elements in the middle of

Stacks & Queues

ticket first.
Trees
Each node has at most two children and the A self-balancing binary search tree that A tree-like data structure where each node
root has zero or 2. We can search or insert maintains an optimal balance between the represents a letter of a word. Useful for
data in O(log n) time complexity while left and right subtrees. Guarantees O(log n) auto-complete and prefix searches because
