Detailed explanation-1: -What is a Non-linear data structure? A non-linear data structure is also another type of data structure in which the data elements are not arranged in a contiguous manner. As the arrangement is nonsequential, so the data elements cannot be traversed or accessed in a single run.

Detailed explanation-2: -Non linear data structures Unlike linear data structures, elements in non-linear data structures are not in any sequence. Instead they are arranged in a hierarchical manner where one element will be connected to one or more elements.

Detailed explanation-3: -Non Linear Data Structure: A Non-linear data structure is one in which data items are not ordered sequentially and each member can connect to other member through multiple paths.

Detailed explanation-4: -A non-linear data structure has no set sequence of connecting all its elements and each element can have multiple paths to connect to other elements. Such data structures supports multi-level storage and often cannot be traversed in single run.
