Vectors, lists, arrays, matrices and data frames -- a look at five of the most fundamental data structures built into R. Among my colleagues, R is one of the fastest-growing programming languages.

Building fast and highly performant data science applications requires an intimate knowledge of how data can be organized in a computer and how to efficiently perform operations such as sorting, ...

Modern software increasingly depends on data structures that go far beyond basic arrays and trees. Some of the most powerful systems rely on designs that rarely appear in traditional programming ...
