Summary

In this chapter, we have studied two of the most commonly used data structures for implementing the data dictionary operation. Hash tables provide fast in-memory insertion and lookup operations. In addition, binary trees also give us the ability to perform various range queries such as successor, predecessor, minimum and maximum. In this chapter, we have seen examples of both data structures, and implementations of these operations.
