About this event

This introductory lecture is designed for those new to data structures and algorithms. We will explore the core data structures built into Python, including lists, tuples, sets, and dictionaries. You will learn how to use these data structures to organize and store data effectively. We will then delve into the world of algorithms, understanding their role in problem-solving and their evaluation using time complexity. Through live coding demonstrations, you will witness the implementation and analysis of algorithms, gaining valuable insights into their workings. By the end of this lecture, you will have a solid foundation in data structures and algorithms, essential tools for any aspiring computer scientist or programmer.
