 Classification of Data Structures

Data structures are broadly classified into two main types:

1️⃣ Primitive Data Structures

These are basic data types provided by programming languages.
They store single values.

Examples:

• Integer (int)

• Float (float)

• Character (char)

• Boolean (bool)

• Pointer

2️⃣ Non-Primitive Data Structures

These store multiple values and are more complex.

Non-primitive data structures are further divided into:

🔹 A. Linear Data Structures

Data elements are arranged in a sequential (linear) order.

Examples:

• Array

• Linked List

• Stack

• Queue

• Deque

• String

🔹 B. Non-Linear Data Structures

Data elements are arranged in a hierarchical or graph-like structure.

Examples:

• Tree

• Graph

• Heap

• Trie
