The first in a series looking at Data Structures and Algorithms, we introduce the concepts in the article Data Structures and Algorithms Introduction.
The series is going to concentrate on the common abstract data types, but if there's one we've missed, feel free to add it to the comments section of the above article. Or mail me at computerprogramming (at) suite101.com and I'll work it into a future article.
If you're new to the black art of computer programming, then perhaps a visit to Computer Programming 101<A> is in order. The article is designed to help get you up to speed, and asking the right questions as quickly as possible!
