How to Implement a Hash Table in Python
This tutorial will show you how to implement a hash table with separate chaining. It's not the most efficient method, but it is the simplest way to get started and create a fully functioning hash table.

You may hate the line at the DMV, but without it, things might turn into a rough-and-tumble free for all! In the same way that a line keeps raging motorists from getting out of hand, a Queue helps your computer keep its ducks in a row. The Queue functions very much like a line of people. It's a First-In, First-Out (FIFO) data structure, so no cutting!
There's no other data structure like the Stack. In only a few minutes, you can have a fully working implementation that can be used to solve a wide variety of problems. Stacks are useful for anything from reversing a string to language processing applications - not to mention the fact that many programming languages (and probably your operating system) rely on a Stack to function.
