Double Linked List

Posted on November 6, 2021November 6, 2021 By christo No Comments on Double Linked List

A double linked list is a two-way list in which all nodes will have two links. This helps in accessing both successor node and predecessor node from the given node position. It provides bi-directional traversing. Each node contains three fields

  • Left link
  • Data
  • Right link

The left link points to the predecessor node and the right link points to the successor node. The data field stores the required data

Many applications require searching forward and backward thru nodes of a list. For example searching for a name in a telephone directory would need forward and backward scanning thru a region of the whole list

The basic operations in a double linked list are:

  • Creation
  • Insertion
  • Deletion
  • Traversing
