When should I use nested data structures in my code?

Nested data structures are useful when you need to represent hierarchical relationships, like trees or graphs.

Can you give me an example of a nested data structure?

Sure! A common example is a JSON object that contains arrays, like a list of users where each user has an array of addresses.

What are the advantages of using nested structures?

They allow for more organized data representation and can simplify complex relationships, making data easier to manage.

Are there any downsides to using them?

Yes, they can increase complexity and make data access slower if not managed properly, especially with deep nesting.
