Practice focus

Choosing a data structure is choosing which operations will be cheap. Order, duplicates, lookup by key and the order items must leave in all point to different structures.

Grade placement is a planning guide for choosing practice. The registry records standard-code mappings as unreviewed, so these pages are not a claim of alignment with a national standard.
