Elementary Data Structures

This section contains the most basic and essential Data Structures you need to know, and will experience later on.

This includes their motivations (why have and use ‘em) and their uses (why use ‘em). In general, we want to study these structures theoretically and in code.

The Data Structures here include data structures based on the mathematical sequence (arrays, lists or dynamic array, tuples, linked list), sets, hashes, data structures with hierarchy, among others.
