- Data structures allow for efficient processing and organization of large volumes of data. They define logical relationships between related data elements and how operations like storage, retrieval, and access are carried out on the data.
- Common data structures include arrays, lists, stacks, queues, trees, graphs, dictionaries, maps, hash tables, sets, and lattices. Linear data structures like arrays and lists store elements in a linear order, while non-linear structures like trees and graphs have more complex relationships between elements.
- Linked lists are a data structure where each element contains a link to the next element, rather than using contiguous memory locations. This allows for more flexible insertion and deletion than arrays. Doubly linked lists add a link to

1. Data Structures
-- Data processing often involves in processing huge volumes of data. Many Companies handle million
records of data stored in database. Many ways are formulated to handle data efficiently.
-- An User-defined data type is a combination of different primary data types, which represents a
complex entity.
-- An Abstract Data Type ( A D T ) not only represents a set of complex data objects, but also includes a
set of operations to be performed on these objects, defines that how the data objects are organized.
-- The group of methods implements a set rules, which defines a logical way of handling data.
-- The complex entity along with its group of methods is called Abstract Data Type ( A D T ) .
-- Data structure is described as an instance of Abstract Data Type ( ADT ).
-- We can define that Data structure is a kind of representation of logical relationship between related
data elements. In data structure, decision on the operations such as storage, retrieval and access must be
carried out between the logically related data elements.

Add_Polynomial( list p, list q )
set p, q to point to the two first nodes (no headers)
initialize a linked list r for a zero polynomial
while p != null and q != null
if p.exp > q.exp
create a node storing p.coeff and p.exp
insert at the end of list r
advance p
else if q.exp > p.exp
create a node storing q.coeff and q.exp
insert at the end of list r
advance q
else if p.exp == q.exp
if p.coeff + q.coeff != 0
create a node storing p.coeff + q.coeff and p.exp
insert at the end of list r
advance p, q
end while
if p != null
copy the remaining terms of p to end of r
else if q != null
copy the remaining terms of q to end of r
8. Doubly Linked List
Pitfalls encountered while using singly linked list :
2) A singly linked list allows traversal of the list in forward direction, but not in backward direction.
3) Deleting a node from a list requires keeping track of the previous node,.
4) In the list any node gets corrupted, the remaining nodes of the list become unusable.
These problems of singly linked lists can be overcome by doubly linked list.
A Doubly Linked List is a data structure having an ordered list of nodes, in which each node
consists of two pointers. One pointer is to store the address of next node like in singly linked list. The
second pointer stores the address of previous node. It is also known as two-way list.
The specialty of DLL is that the list can be traversed in forward as well as backward directions.
The concept of DLL is also used to representing tree data structures.

n1-node n2-node n3-node n4-node
-- Singly Linked List has a major drawback. From a specified node, it is not possible to reach any of
the preceding nodes in the list. To overcome the drawback, a small change is made to the SLL so that
the next field of the last node is pointing to the first node rather than NULL. Such a linked list is called a
circular linked list.
-- Because it is a circular linked list, it is possible to reach any node in the list from a particular node.
-- There is no natural first node or last node because by virtue of the list is circular.
-- Therefore, one convention is to let the external pointer of the circular linked list, tail, point to the last
node and to allow the following node to be the first node.
-- If the tail pointer refers to NULL, means the circular linked list is empty.
Circular Doubly Linked List
prev data next prev data next prev data next prev data next
-- A Circular Doubly Linked List ( CDL ) is a doubly linked list with first node linked to last node and
vice-versa.
-- The ‘ prev ’ link of first node contains the address of last node and ‘ next ’ link of last node contains
the address of first node.
-- Traversal through Circular Singly Linked List is possible only in one direction.
-- The main advantage of Circular Doubly Linked List ( CDL ) is that, a node can be inserted into list
without searching the complete list for finding the address of previous node.
-- We can also traversed through CDL in both directions, from first node to last node and vice-versa.

17. Stacks
-- Stack is an ordered collection of data elements into which new elements may be inserted and from
which elements may be deleted at one end called the “TOP” of stack.
-- A stack is a last-in-first-out ( LIFO ) structure.
-- Insertion operation is referred as “PUSH” and deletion operation is referred as “POP”.
-- The most accessible element in the stack is the element at the position “TOP”.
-- Stack must be created as empty.
-- Whenever an element is pushed into stack, it must be checked whether the stack is full or not.
-- Whenever an element is popped form stack, it must be checked whether the stack is empty or not.
-- We can implement the stack ADT either with array or linked list.

-- Queue is a linear data structure that permits insertion of new element at one end and deletion of an
element at the other end.
-- The end at which insertion of a new element can take place is called ‘ rear ‘ and the end at which
deletion of an element take place is called ‘ front ‘.
-- The first element that gets added into queue is the first one to get removed from the list, Hence
Queue is also referred to as First-In-First-Out ( FIFO ) list.
-- Queue must be created as empty.
-- Whenever an element is inserted into queue, it must be checked whether the queue is full or not.
-- Whenever an element is deleted form queue, it must be checked whether the queue is empty or
not.
-- We can implement the queue ADT either with array or linked list.

24. --Arithmetic Expressions are represented using three notations infix, prefix and postfix. The prefixes
‘pre’, ‘post’, and ‘in’ refer to position of operators with respect to two operands.
-- In infix notation, the operator is placed between the two operands.
Ex: A + B A*B+C (A * B) + (C * D)
-- In Prefix notation, the operator is placed before the two operands.
Ex: +AB *A+BC +*AB*CD
-- In Postfix notation, the operator is placed after the two operands.
Ex: AB+ ABC+* AB*CD*+
Algorithm to Infix to Postfix Conversion
In-To-Post ( infix-expression )
Scan the Infix expression left to right
If the character x is an operand
Output the character into the Postfix Expression
If the character x is a left or right parenthesis
If the character is “(
Push it into the stack
If the character is “)”
Repeatedly pop and output all the operators/characters until “(“ is popped from the stack.
If the character x is a is a regular operator
Check the character y currently at the top of the stack.
If Stack is empty or y is ‘(‘ or y is an operator of lower precedence than x, then
Push x into stack.
If y is an operator of higher or equal precedence than x,
Pop and output y and push x into the stack.
When all characters in infix expression are processed
repeatedly pop the character(s) from the stack and output them until the stack is empty.
