Data structures

In computer science, a data structure is a data organization, management, and storage


format that is usually chosen for efficient access to data.
The four basic data structure types are:
1. linear data structures,
2. tree data structures,
3. hash data structures and
4. graph data structures.
A data structure is a specialized format for organizing, processing, retrieving and storing
data. There are several basic and advanced types of data structures, all designed to arrange data to
suit a specific purpose. Data structures make it easy for users to access and work with the data
they need in appropriate ways.
