Usage
Data structures serve as the basis for abstract data types(ADT). The ADT defines the logical form of the data type
Implementation
Data structures are generally based on the ability of a computer to fetch and store data at any place in its memory
Examples
There are numerous types of data structures, generally built upon simpler primitive data types
Language support
Most assembly languages and some low-level languages, such as BCPL(Basic Combined Programming Language)

In computer science, a data structure is a data organization, management, and storage format that enables efficient access and modification. More precisely, a data structure is a collection of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied to the data.
A data structure is a
storage that is used to store and organize data. It is a way of arranging data on a computer so that it can be accessed and updated efficiently. A data structure is not only used for organizing the data. It is also used for processing, retrieving, and storing data.,
