This tutorial launches a short series introducing data structures and algorithms. In Part 1, you’ll learn what a data structure is and how data structures are classified.

Learn when and how to use different data structures and their algorithms in your own code. This is harder as a student, as the problem assignments you'll work through just won't impart this knowledge.

Definition of a Data Structure & Algorithms. Data structures and algorithms are vital elements in many computing applications. When programmers design and build applications, they need to model ...
