1 Need of Data Structure

The computers are used to perform tasks in order to consume optimum resources - time and
space. The data structure helps to build applications which are efficient in terms of CPU time and
memory space required to execute it.
Data structure enables the developers to design more complex applications taking the advantage
of more powerful computers.
Data structure simply helps the developers to handle data more logically. This logical handling
of data encourages better documentation, modeling, flawless development and compliance with
the software engineering principles and quality guidelines.
Using data structure enables the developer to manage memory usage as per need dynamically. It
also assists the developer to model and implement complex data easily.
In summary, we need data structure

To design efficient applications with optimum utilization of resources

To design complex applications with ease
To handle data logically
To understand and model application easily
To encourage better memory management
