data_structures

📊 Data Structures

This folder contains C programming implementations of various data structures and their operations.

What Goes Here

• Linear Data Structures: Arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues
• Tree Data Structures: Binary trees, AVL trees, binary search trees, heaps
• Graph Data Structures: Adjacency matrix, adjacency list representations
• Hash Tables: Hash table implementations with collision handling
• Advanced Structures: Tries, segment trees, disjoint sets
• Custom Structures: User-defined data structures for specific problems

File Naming

Use the format: data_structures_structureName.c

Code Requirements

• ✅ Complete Implementation: Include all basic operations (create, insert, delete, search)
• ✅ Memory Management: Proper allocation and deallocation
• ✅ Error Handling: Handle edge cases and invalid operations
• ✅ Efficiency: Optimize operations where possible
• ✅ Documentation: Clear explanation of structure and operations
