  1. hierarchical data structure

    A hierarchical data structure is a set of data organized in a tree-like model, where each piece of data is linked to a superior or subordinate piece of data. It is characterized by a "parent-child" relationship, with the highest level being the "parent" and subsequent levels constituting the "children". This type of structure is widely used in file systems, databases, and data management systems, enabling data to be sorted and retrieved efficiently.
