    Study Notes

    Data Structures Overview

    • Data structures are used to organize data in a computer's memory to enable efficient storage and retrieval.

    Queue Data Structure

    • A queue is a First-In-First-Out (FIFO) data structure, where data exits in the same order it enters.
    • A key feature of a queue is that it has a beginning and end.

    Binary Tree Data Structure

    • A binary tree is a data structure organized like an upside-down tree, with each node having at most two children.
    • The purpose of a binary tree is to enable efficient search, insertion, and deletion of data.

    Choosing Data Structures

    • Computer programmers decide which data structures to use based on the specific requirements of their program, such as efficiency, scalability, and complexity.

    Simple Data Structures

    • An example of a commonly used simple data structure is an array.
