Introduce essential data structures like arrays, linked lists, stacks, and queues. Understand how these structures organize data and how their choice significantly impacts the performance and elegance of algorithms.
Introduction: Why Data Structures Matter
The Building Blocks: Primitive and Non-Primitive Data Types
Linear Data Structures: Organizing Information Sequentially
Arrays: The Classic Contiguous Collection
Linked Lists: Dynamic Chains of Data
Stacks and Queues: LIFO and FIFO Principles in Action
Non-Linear Data Structures: Navigating Complex Relationships
Trees: Hierarchical Structures for Efficient Searching
Graphs: Representing Networks and Connections
Hash Tables: The Power of Direct Access
Choosing the Right Data Structure for the Job
Conclusion: Data Structures as Enablers of Algorithmic Prowess
