In this chapter, we have successfully built others linear data types: the Stack, Queue, and Deque data types. We can use the Stack data type if we need storage that only has one side to insert and remove an element, we can use the Queue data type if we need storage which has to insert and remove the element from a different side, and if we need storage that can be accessed from two sides, both the front and back sides, we can use the Deque data type. Fortunately, the time complexity for all of the operations in these three data types isO(1), and doesn't depend on the number of the elements in the data type. In the next chapter, we are going to discuss various sorting algorithms to arrange the elements inside the data types we have discussed so far.

Overview of this book
C++ is a general-purpose programming language which has evolved over the years and is used to develop software for many different sectors. This book will be your companion as it takes you through implementing classic data structures and algorithms to help you get up and running as a confident C++ programmer.
We begin with an introduction to C++ data structures and algorithms while also covering essential language constructs. Next, we will see how to store data using linked lists, arrays, stacks, and queues. Then, we will learn how to implement different sorting algorithms, such as quick sort and heap sort. Along with these, we will dive into searching algorithms such as linear search, binary search and more. Our next mission will be to attain high performance by implementing algorithms to string datatypes and implementing hash structures in algorithm design. We'll also analyze Brute Force algorithms, Greedy algorithms, and more.
By the end of the book, you'll know how to build components that are easy to understand, debug, and use in different applications.
