Data Structures Cheat Sheet (Extended)

Data Structures Cheat Sheet

Linear Data Structures:

1. Arrays: Fixed-size sequential collections, suitable for index-based access.

2. Linked Lists: Dynamic collections with nodes connected by pointers.

3. Stacks: LIFO structure for operations like backtracking or undo functionality.

4. Queues: FIFO structure for task scheduling and buffering.

Non-Linear Data Structures:

5. Trees: Hierarchical structures used in databases and file systems.

6. Graphs: Used to model networks, with nodes (vertices) and edges (connections).

7. Heaps: Complete binary trees used in priority queues.

Common Operations:

8. Searching: Techniques like binary search for sorted data.

9. Sorting: Algorithms like QuickSort, MergeSort, and BubbleSort.

10. Traversal: Breadth-first search (BFS) and depth-first search (DFS) for trees and graphs.

Applications:

11. Hash Tables: Efficient data retrieval using hash functions.

12. Tries: Efficiently store and search strings, used in autocomplete systems.
13. Disjoint Set Union (DSU): Used in graph algorithms for finding connected components.
