Datastructures:

    Data structures involve the organizing the data in different methods and performing the operations on these structures.
    Datastructures are categorized as shown in fig:




Primitive Datastructures:

    These are the datastructures which are directly supported by the machine.i.e.Any operation can be performed in these data items.

Eg:Integers,Real numbers,datatype involving characters

        and some logical statements.

Non-primitive Datastructures:

    These Datastructures do not allow any specific instructions to be performed on the Data items directly.

Eg: The set of Complex numbers


Linear Datastructures:

    This DataStructures involve arranging the elements in Linear fashion.

Eg:Stacks,Queue,Lists.


Non-Linear Datastructures:

    This Datastructures involve representing the elements in Hierarchical order.

Eg: Trees, Graphs
