In this article, we will learn the basics about what is data structure and algorithms.
Data structures and algorithms with JavaScrip
What is Data Structure?
A Data Structure is a particular way of organizing data so that it can be used and modified efficiently.
The Data structure is a fundamental concept of any programming language, essential for algorithmic design.
What is an algorithm?
An Algorithm is a set of instructions for solving a logical problem.
The algorithm is steps or processes to arrange data.
For example,
[4,85,2,9,6]
[2,4,6,9,85]So,basically, the algorithm is just logic, independent of language or machine.
Linear data structure:
If the elements of a data structure result in a sequence or a linear list then it is called a linear data structure.
Examples: Array, Linked list, Stacks, Queues, etc.
Non-Linear data structure:
If the elements of data structures don't form a sequence but instead connects to two or more item then it's called a non-linear data structure.
Example: Trees, Graphs, etc..
Data Structure Operations:
The common operations that can be performed on the data structure are as follows:
✅ Searching
✅ Sorting
✅ Insertion
✅ Deletion
✅ Updation
