Basic languages have simple data structures like vars and arrays but other languages like c++ with the help of pointers can have advanced data structures like containers etc...
see a full list here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_data_structures i wonder if such data structures can be implemented with gambas with pointers and if such an action have any mean for real life applications? Is it possible to have such data structures in gambas? How about some of these to be part of the core libraries?
