A Singly Linked List is one of the simplest data structures used to store a collection of elements. Unlike arrays, a linked list does not keep elements in continuous memory. Instead, each element, called a node, stores two things: Because each node points to the next one, the entire list forms a chain-like structure. Example:…
What Is a Linked List? A Linked List is a data structure where elements (called nodes) are stored in a chain-like structure. Each node has two parts: Unlike arrays, linked lists do not store elements in continuous memory. You can imagine it like a person holding the hand of another person, who holds the hand…
In this chapter, we will learn how to create and manage arrays in Java without using built-in classes. Writing your own array implementation helps you understand: This array code is an important step, specially for beginners, because it builds the foundation for learning Linked Lists, Stacks, Queues, and Dynamic Arrays later. What This Code Covers…
What Is an Array? An Array is a simple data structure that stores multiple values in continuous memory locations.You can think of an array like a row of lockers – each locker has an index, and you can store one value in each. Example in real life: A row of seats in a classroom –…
What Are Data Structures? Data Structures are simple ways to organize and store data so that we can use it efficiently.In programming, we work with a lot of data – numbers, names, records, files, and more. Without a proper structure, this data becomes difficult to manage. A data structure helps us: Think of it like…
