  2. List of data structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_data_structures

    "Ordered" means that the elements of the data type have some kind of explicit order to them, where an element can be considered "before" or "after" another element. This order is usually determined by the order in which the elements are added to the structure, but the elements can be rearranged in some contexts, such as sorting a list.

    Common data structures and their usage Data Structure Definition Usage Array: A fixed-size collection of elements of the same data type, accessible by indices. General-purpose storage and retrieval, basis of many more complex structures. List: An abstract data type that represents a sequence of values, where the same value may occur more than once.

  5. Data structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure

    A data structure known as a hash table.. In computer science, a data structure is a data organization and storage format that is usually chosen for efficient access to data. [1] [2] [3] More precisely, a data structure is a collection of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied to the data, [4] i.e., it is an algebraic structure about data.

  6. Comparison of data structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_data_structures

    For a more comprehensive listing of data structures, see List of data structures. The comparisons in this article are organized by abstract data type . As a single concrete data structure may be used to implement many abstract data types, some data structures may appear in multiple comparisons (for example, a hash map can be used to implement ...

    Likewise, if different sets of data that can be stored in the same data structure are to be included in a single linked list, then internal storage would be fine. Another approach that can be used with some languages involves having different data structures, but all have the initial fields, including the next (and prev if double linked list ...

  8. Data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_type

    Some types are very useful for storing and retrieving data and are called data structures. Common data structures include: An array (also called vector, list, or sequence) stores a number of elements and provides random access to individual elements. The elements of an array are typically (but not in all contexts) required to be of the same type.

    The NIST Dictionary of Algorithms and Data Structures [1] is a reference work maintained by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology. It defines a large number of terms relating to algorithms and data structures. For algorithms and data structures not necessarily mentioned here, see list of algorithms and list of data structures.
