Data structures organize data in a way that allows for efficient searching and analysis. Structuring data upfront is key to maximizing the speed of searches and minimizing the time spent preparing data for analysis. There are two main types of data structures - primitive and non-primitive. Primitive structures like integers and characters directly operate on machine instructions, while non-primitive structures like arrays and lists group related data items. Data wrangling, the process of preparing raw data for analysis, relies heavily on structuring data as its first step, as getting data organized efficiently reduces bottlenecks that waste 80% of project time.

What Is Data Structure: Why It’s Important


Data structures give you a way to collect and organize data so that you can do something with it. A
program’s algorithm is responsible for the “do something with it” part—it’s the underlying logic that performs
operations on your data—so data structures and algorithms are inextricably linked.
When you’re looking for something—for example, you want to know in real time how your customers
are talking about your product across all social networks—the speed and efficiency of your search is of utmost
importance. Structuring the data is key to maximizing the speed and efficiency of your searches so that you can
get to the analysis as quickly as possible.

What Is Data Structure: Its Types

Primitive Data Structures


Primitive Data Structures are the basic data structures that directly operate upon the machine instructions.
hey have different representations on different computers.
Integers, Floating point numbers, Character constants, String constants and Pointers come under
this category.

Non-primitive Data Structures

Non-primitive data structures are more complicated data structures and are derived from primitive data
structures.
They emphasize on grouping same or different data items with relationship between each data item.
Arrays, Lists and Files come under this category.

What Is Data Structure: Its Role in Data Wrangling


“Data wrangling” is the process of taking data in its native format and making it usable for analysis. Structuring
the data is only one of the six processes involved in data wrangling—but structuring data is integral to the
success of your big data efforts:
“If you talk to any data scientist worth their salt, they will tell you that the first challenge of putting data to work
for your business is getting it into a structured format so that you can analyze, interpret and make decisions
around your data. This is lovingly referred to as “Data Wrangling” and it’s what sucks up the bulk of the
unproductive (wasteful) time (4 out of 5 days, by most accounts). That’s because instead of spending time
understanding the data, you’re wasting time trying to pull it all together in a useable format. This is what
usually creates the bottleneck in any organization.”
What is data structure? In short, it’s the first, critical step to actually doing something useful with your data.
