Data structures 1 – An introduction to data structures
When trying desperately to explain data structures to a colleague, I came to the rather shocking realisation that there is very little material out there for beginners to cut their teeth on. So, without further ado, here is my little primer on data structures and how they work. In each post, I will try to […]
