Conclusion
As you saw while reading the book, there are many data structures with many configuration variants. Thus, choosing a proper data structure is not an easy task, which could have a significant impact on the performance of the developed solution. Even the topics mentioned in this book form quite a long list of described data structures. For this reason, it is a good idea to classify them in some way.
Within this chapter, the described data structures are grouped into linear and non-linear categories. Each element in a linear data structure can be logically adjacent to the following or the previous element. In the case of a nonlinear data structure, a single element can be logically adjacent to numerous others, not necessarily only one or two.
As it is the last chapter of the book, we will also summarize all of the gathered knowledge. Each data structure will be presented with a brief description, and some of them will be also shown with illustrations to help you remember...
