8) It allows processing of data on software system

Disadvantages:-

1) It is applicable only for advanced users.

2) If any issue occurs it can be solved only by experts.

3) Slow access in case of some data types

Practical use of data structure:

For fast data lookup, data indexing, Ip addressing, parsers, dynamic memory allocation,process scheduling,dictionary, directory traversal,web crawling , organizing file hierarchy etc.
