Define data structures. Give the detailed explanation of its classification.
A data structure is a particular way of organizing data in a computer so that it can be used efficiently. The way data is organized can have significant impact on the efficiency of algorithms that process and manipulate the data.
Classification of Data Structures:
According to the way data is organized, data structures are categorized into:
- Linear Data Structures: Represent data in a sequential manner, where each element has a unique predecessor and successor.
- Non-Linear Data Structures: Represent data in a hierarchical or interconnected manner, where elements can have multiple predecessors and successors.
