What is a data structure? An arrangement of data in a computer's
memory or disk.
Why is understanding data It helps in developing not just a solution,
structures and algorithms but the best solution considering execution
important? time and memory consumption.
What is an algorithm? A set of instructions for manipulating data in
data structures.

What is real-world data? Data that describes physical entities
external to the computer.
What are some considerations Memory consumption, scalability, and
when converting real-world relevant algorithms.
