| Data structures in Couchbase are similar in concept to data structures in Scala: | ||

| * *Map* is an iterable over a set of keys and values, like a https://docs.scala-lang.org/overviews/collections-2.13/maps.html[Scala Map]. | ||
| * *List* is is a finite immutable sequence. |

It's Buffer in Scala, and is mutable. It extends Scala's mutable.AbstractBuffer
| Values can be placed in the beginning or end of a list, and can be accessed using numeric indexes. | ||
| // or can it ? https://docs.scala-lang.org/overviews/collections-2.13/concrete-immutable-collection-classes.html#lists | ||
| * *Queue* is a First In First Out (FIFO) sequence, | ||
| like a https://docs.scala-lang.org/overviews/collections-2.13/concrete-immutable-collection-classes.html#immutable-queues[Scala Immutable Queue]. |

| Using the data structures API may help your application in two ways: | ||
|
|
||
| * *Simplicity*: Data structures provide high level operations by which you can deal with documents as if they were container data structures. | ||
| Adding an item to a dictionary is expressed as `MapAdd`, rather than retrieving the entire document, modifying it locally, and then saving it back to the server. |
