Technology Types of Data Structures
There are two types of data structures:
Primitive data structure
Non-primitive data structure
Amity School of Engineering & Technology Primitive data structure
The primitive data structures are
primitive data types. The int, char, float, double, and pointer are the primitive data structures that can hold a single value. Amity School of Engineering & Technology
Non-Primitive Data structure
The non-primitive data structure is divided into two types: • Linear data structure • Non-linear data structure Amity School of Engineering & Technology
• Linear data structure:-The arrangement of
data in a sequential manner is known as a linear data structure. The data structures used for this purpose are Arrays, Linked list, Stacks, and Queues. In these data structures, one element is connected to only one another element in a linear form. Amity School of Engineering & Technology
• Non-linear data structure:-When one
element is connected to the 'n' number of elements known as a non-linear data structure. The best example is trees and graphs. In this case, the elements are arranged in a random manner. Amity School of Engineering & Technology
