Data Structures - TSV

Data structures are methodologies for efficiently storing and managing data in computer memory. They are broadly classified into linear data structures (arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues) and non-linear data structures (trees, graphs, hash tables), each with different time and space complexity characteristics for specific operations. Choosing the appropriate data structure significantly impacts algorithm efficiency and program performance.
