Data Structures

Data Structures are specialized formats for organizing, storing, and manipulating data on a computer. They enable efficient access and modification of data, and are fundamental to designing efficient algorithms. Coursera's data structures catalogue teaches you to understand, design, analyze and implement fundamental data structures like arrays, stacks, queues, linked lists, trees, hash tables, and graphs. You'll learn various operations on these data structures, their time and space complexities, and their applications in real-life problem-solving. Grasp the principles of data abstraction and encapsulation to enhance your computational thinking abilities and become proficient as a software engineer, data scientist, programmer, or as someone aspiring to advance in these spheres.
