Data Structures in Python

Data structures organize and manipulate information every time you write Python code. Master built-in types like lists, tuples, dictionaries, and sets to handle collections efficiently. Understand when to use each structure based on performance characteristics and your program’s needs.

Custom data structures like stacks, queues, linked lists, and hash tables fill the gaps when built-ins don’t fit your requirements. Learn about the collections module for specialized containers, explore time complexity for common operations, and choose the right structure to optimize your algorithms. Apply these concepts to solve real-world problems efficiently.
