| The Python Data Structures |
A data structure is a particular way of organizing data in a computer so that it can be used efficiently. Python comes with a robust set of inbuilt data structures. Some of the most commonly used ones are :-
- Lists
- Tuples
- Dictionaries
Majorly, the data structures can be divided into two categories :-
- Mutable :- A mutable data structure is a structure whose state can be modified after it is created. Python Lists and Dictionaries are mutable.
- Immutable :- An immutable data structure can't be modified. Example :- Once a tuple is created, we can't update the values inside it.
