This document discusses data representation and data structures. It defines data as numbers, alphabets, and symbols. Data can be atomic, consisting of a single element, or composite, consisting of multiple elements. The document also defines data types in programming languages like C which specify the kind of data variables can hold. User-defined types and derived data types are also discussed. Data structures are defined as the organization of data and relationships between data elements that allow for methods of storage, access, and processing. Common data structures include arrays, stacks, queues, linked lists, trees, and graphs.
