A data structure is a named location that can be used to store and organise data. And, an algorithm is a collection of steps to solve a particular problem. Learning data structures and algorithms allow us to write efficient and optimised computer programs.
In computer science, a data structure is a data organisation, management, and storage format that enables efficient access and modification. More precisely, a data structure is a collection of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied to the data.
In mathematics and computer science, an algorithm is a finite sequence of well-defined, computer-implementable instructions, typically to solve a class of problems or to perform a computation. Algorithms are always unambiguous and are used as specifications for performing calculations, data processing, automated reasoning, and other tasks.
Getting started with DSA is an anthology of Data Structures and Algorithms in all popular programming languages.Open and solve an issue(which can be raised by you too) inside the microbyte to get started with your contibution by adding on new Data Structurs/Algorithms to the microbyte.
