Hi,

Data Structure means

An organization of information, usually in memory, for better algorithm efficiency, such as queue, stack, linked list, heap, dictionary, and tree, or conceptual unity, such as the name and address of a person. It may include redundant information, such as length of the list or number of nodes in a subtree.

this proceess is to know how the data is stored in the memory by using this we can understand programitically.

Hi ,

We cannot create a record in it and we do not have any technical settings as the table has. we donot have a primary key or a foriegn key .. it does not store data in it .But data is dynamically generated during run time...\

Hi Priya,

Structure: Structures are database object which does not contain any data it is like a template with set of fields.

if you refer that in your screen it may contain only one data at runtime.

Sturctures are used to add fields to the tables.

There are two types of strucutes.

1.Append Structure

2. Include structure.
