Data Structures comparison in C#

Data StructureDescriptionKey FeaturesUse CasesPerformance
ArrayFixed-size, contiguous memory allocation. Used for storing elements of the same type.– Constant-time access (O(1)) for indexed elements.- Cannot resize once created.– Low-level data storage.- Known fixed size.Access: O(1)- Search: O(n)- Insertion/Deletion: Not supported efficiently
List (List<T>)A dynamic array that resizes automatically when elements are added/removed.– Dynamically resizable.- Maintains order of elements.- Supports LINQ queries.– Storing ordered data.- Frequent additions/removals.Access: O(1)- Search: O(n)- Insertion/Deletion: O(n) (due to resizing or shifting elements)
Dictionary (HashMap)A collection of key-value pairs implemented as a hash table.– Fast lookups with unique keys.- Unordered.- Keys must be unique.– Storing mappings (e.g., ID → Object).Access/Search: O(1) (average)- Insertion/Deletion: O(1) (average)
HashSetA collection of unique elements, implemented as a hash table.– Fast lookups.- Only stores unique elements.- Unordered.– Checking membership.- Removing duplicates.Add/Search: O(1) (average)- Insertion/Deletion: O(1)
QueueA FIFO (First-In-First-Out) collection.– Enqueue (add to end).- Dequeue (remove from front).- Used for sequential processing.– Task scheduling.- Order-sensitive tasks.Enqueue/Dequeue: O(1)
StackA LIFO (Last-In-First-Out) collection.– Push (add to top).- Pop (remove from top).- Peek (view top element).– Undo operations.- Depth-first search.Push/Pop: O(1)
SortedListA sorted collection of key-value pairs (sorted by key).– Maintains keys in sorted order.- Slower than Dictionary for large datasets.– When sorted keys are important.Search: O(log n)- Insertion/Deletion: O(n)
LinkedListA doubly linked list where each element points to the next and previous elements.– Efficient insertion/deletion at any position.- No random access (sequential only).– Frequent insertions/deletions.- Traversing data.Access/Search: O(n)- Insertion/Deletion: O(1) (if the node reference is known)
