"A data structure is a specialized format for organizing and storing data. General data structure types contain the array, the file, the record, the table, the tree, and so on. Any data structure is designed to organize data to suit a specific purpose so that it can be accessed and worked with in appropriate ways. In computer programming, a data structure may be selected or designed to store data for the purpose of working on it with various algorithms. This book offers a means to manage large amounts of data efficiently for uses such as large databases and internet indexing services. Typically, well-organized data structures are crucial to designing efficient algorithms."--Back cover.
