+# Linked List in Python
+
+A **Linked List** is a fundamental **linear data structure** where elements are **not** stored at contiguous memory locations (unlike arrays or Python lists). Instead, the elements, called **Nodes**, are linked together using **pointers** or **references**.
+
+This structure allows for highly efficient **insertions** and **deletions** compared to arrays, where these operations can be slow.
+
+---
+
+## Structure of a Linked List
+
+The linked list is built upon two core concepts:
+
+1.  **Node:** The basic building block, which contains:
+    * **Data:** The value stored.
+    * **Next Pointer (`next`):** The reference to the next node in the sequence.
+2.  **Head:** A pointer to the very first node in the list. It is the entry point for all operations. The last node's `next` pointer always points to **`None`**.
+
+### Real-Life Analogy
+
+Think of a **treasure hunt or a chain of clues**. Each clue (**Node**) holds the information (**Data**) and a direction to the next clue (**Next Pointer**). You must follow the chain from the beginning (**Head**) to find the end.
+
+---
+
+## Python Implementation: The Node Class
+
+Since Python doesn't have a built-in linked list type, we define its structure using classes.
+
+The `Node` class defines the element structure.
+
+```python
+class Node:
+    """Represents a single element in the linked list."""
+    def __init__(self, data):
+        # Store the data
+        self.data = data
+        # Initialize the pointer to the next node
+        self.next = None
+```
+
+## Python Implementation: The LinkedList Class
+
+The `LinkedList` class manages the list, primarily by keeping track of the `head`.
+
+```python
+class LinkedList:
+    """Manages the linked list and its head pointer."""
+    def __init__(self):
+        # Initialize the list's entry point
+        self.head = None
+```
+
+### Traversal: Printing the List
+
+To traverse, we start at the head and loop until the current node becomes None, updating the current node with its next pointer in each iteration.
+
+```python
+class LinkedList:
+    # __init__ and Node class definition here 
+
+    def print_list(self):
+        current_node = self.head
+        print("List:", end=" ")
+        while current_node is not None:
+            print(current_node.data, end=" -> ")
+            current_node = current_node.next
+        print("None")
+```
+***Example***
+
+```python
+my_list = LinkedList()
+my_list.head = Node(10)
+second = Node(20)
+third = Node(30)
+
+# Linking the nodes: 10 -> 20 -> 30 -> None
+my_list.head.next = second
+second.next = third
+my_list.print_list()
+```
+
+**Output:**
+
+```
+List: 10 -> 20 -> 30 -> None
+```
+
+### Insertion Operations
+
+#### 1. Insertion at the Beginning (Prepend)
+
+It only requires updating the head pointer.
+
+```python
+def insert_at_beginning(self, new_data):
+    # Create a new node
+    new_node = Node(new_data)
+
+    # Make the new node's next pointer point to the current head
+    new_node.next = self.head
+
+    # Update the list's head to point to the new node
+    self.head = new_node
+```
+
+***Example***
+
+```python
+my_list.insert_at_beginning(5)
+my_list.print_list()
+```
+
+**Output:**
+
+```
+List: 5-> 10 -> 20 -> 30 -> None
+```
+
+#### 2. Insertion After a Node
+
+```python
+def insert_after(self, prev_node, new_data):
+    if prev_node is None:
+        print("Previous node cannot be None.")
+        return
+
+    # Create the new node
+    new_node = Node(new_data)
+
+    # Set new node's next to the previous node's next
+    new_node.next = prev_node.next
+
+    # Set the previous node's next to the new node
+    prev_node.next = new_node
+```
+
+***Example***
+
+```python
+my_list.insert_after(my_list.head, 15)
+my_list.print_list()
+```
+
+**Output:**
+
+```
+List: 5-> 15-> 10 -> 20 -> 30 -> None
+``` 
+
+### Deletion Operation
+
+Deleting the Head
+
+```python
+def delete_head(self):
+    if self.head is None:
+        return
+
+    # Move the head to the next node, which effectively "deletes" the old head
+    self.head = self.head.next
+```
+
+***Example***
+
+```python
+my_list.delete_head() # Deletes head (5)
+my_list.print_list()
+```
+
+**Output:**
+
+```
+List: 15-> 10 -> 20 -> 30 -> None
+```

+# Queue in Python
+
+A **Queue** is a linear data structure that follows a specific order for all operations. This order is based on the **First-In, First-Out (FIFO)** principle.
+
+Imagine a ticket line: the first person to join the line is the first person to be served and leave.
+
+---
+
+## Queue Operations
+
+Queues have two distinct ends where operations occur: the **Rear** (for insertion) and the **Front** (for removal).
+
+| Operation | Description | Analogy |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| **Enqueue** | Adds an element to the **Rear**. | Joining the back of the line. |
+| **Dequeue** | Removes an element from the **Front**. | Leaving the front of the line. |
+| **Peek** | Returns the front element without removing it. | Looking at the person next in line. |
+
+---
+
+## Queue Operations Using Python List
+
+In the simplest Python implementation, we use a built-in **`list`** as the underlying storage. For a true FIFO queue:
+
+* **Enqueue** is performed using `list.append()` (at the rear/end).
+* **Dequeue** is performed using `list.pop(0)` (from the front/start).
+* **Peek** is performed using list indexing `list[0]` (at the fromt/start).
+
+### The Queue Class
+
+```python
+class Queue:
+    """Implements a Queue using the FIFO principle with a Python list."""
+    def __init__(self):
+        # The storage container for the queue elements
+        self._items = [] 
+
+    def is_empty(self):
+        """Check if the queue is empty."""
+        return not self._items
+
+    def enqueue(self, data):
+        """Adds an element to the rear of the queue (list.append()). (O(1))"""
+        self._items.append(data)
+        print(f"Enqueued: {data}")
+
+    def dequeue(self):
+        """Removes and returns the front element (list.pop(0)). (O(N))"""
+        if self.is_empty():
+            raise IndexError("Error: Cannot dequeue from an empty queue.")
+
+        # pop(0) removes the first item (the front of the queue)
+        return self._items.pop(0)
+
+    def peek(self):
+        """Returns the front element without removing it."""
+        if self.is_empty():
+            raise IndexError("Error: Cannot peek at an empty queue.")
+
+        # Access the first item (0 index)
+        return self._items[0]
+```
+
+***Example***
+
+```python
+my_queue = Queue()
+my_queue.enqueue("Task 1") 
+my_queue.enqueue("Task 2") 
+my_queue.enqueue("Task 3") 
+
+print("\nFront element (Peek):", my_queue.peek())
+
+served_item = my_queue.dequeue()
+print("Dequeued element:", served_item)
+
+print("Queue Status:", my_queue._items)
+
+my_queue.dequeue()
+my_queue.dequeue()
+
+# my_queue.dequeue() # Uncommenting this line will raise an IndexError
+```
+
+**Output**:
+
+```
+Enqueued: Task 1
+Enqueued: Task 2
+Enqueued: Task 3
+
+Front element (Peek): Task 1
+Dequeued element: Task 1
+Queue Status: ['Task 2', 'Task 3']

+# Stack in Python
+
+A **Stack** is a linear data structure that follows a specific order for all operations. This order is based on the **Last-In, First-Out (LIFO)** principle.
+
+Imagine a stack of plates: you can only add a new plate to the top, and you can only remove the plate that is currently on the top.
+
+---
+
+## Stack Operations
+
+A stack has three primary operations, all of which occur at the **Top** of the stack:
+
+1.  `Push`: **Adds** an element to the top of the stack.
+2.  `Pop`: **Removes** and returns the element from the top of the stack.
+3.  `Peek`: **Returns** the element at the top.
+
+| Operation | Description | Analogy |
+| :--- | :--- | :--- |
+| **Push** | Add element to the **Top** | Placing a plate on top of the stack |
+| **Pop** | Remove element from the **Top** | Taking the top plate off the stack |
+| **Peek** | View the element at the **Top** | Looking at the top plate |
+
+---
+
+## Stack Operations Using Python
+ListIn the simplest Python implementation, we use a built-in list as the underlying storage. For a true LIFO stack, all primary operations are performed at the end of the list:
+
+* **Push** is performed using `list.append()`.
+* **Pop** is performed using `list.pop()`. 
+* **Peek** is performed using list indexing `list[-1]`.

+            raise IndexError("Error: Cannot peek at an empty stack.")
+
+        # Access the last item (-1 index)
+        return self._items[-1]
+```

+***Example***
+
+```python
+my_stack = Stack()
+my_stack.push("A") 
+my_stack.push("B") 
+my_stack.push("C")

+print("Current size:", len(my_stack._items))
+
+my_stack.pop()
+my_stack.pop()

+# my_stack.pop() # Uncommenting this line will raise an IndexError

+
+**Output**:

+Pushed: B
+Pushed: C
