Why some algorithms will work better than others for your specific use case. How to use time and space complexity measurements to choose the most efficient algorithm for your use case.

Some applications model data within database systems, in which case the database system handles the details of choosing data structures, as well as the algorithms to manage them.

Learn when and how to use different data structures and their algorithms in your own code. This is harder as a student, as the problem assignments you'll work through just won't impart this knowledge.

This tutorial launches a short series introducing data structures and algorithms. In Part 1, you’ll learn what a data structure is and how data structures are classified.
