Data structure is useful and important in programming because they help us understand the nature of the problem at a deeper level. Data structures are a particular way or organizing data in a computer so that the data may be used effectively. There are many different data structures such as binary tree, hashing, graph, matrix, and array. An example of a data structure using the same data type is the array.
Arrays are commonly used in computer programs to organize data so that a related set of values can be easily sorted or searched.and when to use the array. Arrays are extremely powerful data structures that store elements of the same type. The type of elements and the size of the array are fixed and defined when you create it.
To understand how an array works, it may help to imagine a computers memory as a grid. An array takes advantage of this grid-like structure to store lists of related information in adjacent memory locations. This guarantees efficiency for finding those values. Memory is allocated immediately after the array is created and its empty until you assign the values. Arrays are classified as Homogeneous Data Structures because they store elements of the same type. They can store numbers, strings, boolean values (true and false), characters, objects, and so on and so forth. Once the type of values that your array will store are defined, the arrays elements must be that same type. You cannot mix and match different types of data, such as letters and numbers.
