Introduction to C++
Object-Oriented Powerful Efficiency
C++ is object-oriented, allowing code C++ offers powerful features for memory C++ excels in performance, often used in
organization through classes, objects, management, control flow, and data high-performance computing, game
inheritance, and polymorphism. manipulation, ideal for complex development, and system-level
algorithms. programming.
Data Structures in C++
Arrays Linked Lists
Contiguous memory blocks holding elements of the same data Dynamic data structures with nodes linked together, allowing
type, allowing efficient access and manipulation. flexible insertion and deletion operations.
Declaration Access
Arrays are declared with data type, Individual elements are accessed
name, and size. using an index starting from 0.
Iteration Searching
Arrays are easily traversed using Linear and binary search algorithms
loops to process elements. can be applied to arrays.
Linked Lists in C++
Node Structure Insertion and Deletion
Nodes contain data and a pointer to the next Elements can be inserted and deleted efficiently
node. at any position.

Queues
2
FIFO: First element in is the first out.
Applications
3
Used for function calls, undo/redo, and processing tasks.
Trees & Binary Search Trees in C++
Trees
1
Hierarchical structures with nodes arranged in a parent-child relationship.
Applications
3
Efficient search, sorting, and storage of data.
Sorting Algorithms in C++
1 2
Bubble Sort Insertion Sort
Simple but inefficient, comparing and Builds a sorted list by inserting
swapping adjacent elements. elements in the correct position.

Merge Sort Quick Sort
Divides and conquers, recursively Pivots around a chosen element,
merging sorted subarrays. partitioning data into subarrays.
Searching Algorithms in C++
Linear Search
1 Sequential search through all elements until a match is found.
Binary Search
2 Efficient search in sorted data, repeatedly dividing the search
space.
Hashing
3 Mapping data to indices in a hash table for faster retrieval.
Practical Applications of C++
in DSA
C++ empowers efficient development of various applications, including
database management systems, game engines, artificial intelligence, and web
development platforms.
