I'm ready to start learning about data structures after getting the hang of the basics of coding and solving challenges on platforms like Codewars with loops and arrays. I'm particularly interested in understanding data structures and Big O notation. For anyone who has been through this journey, what were your strategies for learning data structures? What methods worked well for you?

Instead of just learning about data structures in abstract terms, try tackling specific problems, especially sorting and searching. Understanding data structures really clicks when you see how they apply to real-world problems.
Got it! So I should dive into some problems to grasp how each data structure gets applied.
