LINKED LISTS
In this topic we learn how to store data in a non-contiguous manner and we understand how the Linked List can work in a better time complexity that other data structures in some operations.

What is a Linked List?
A linked list is a linear data structure that consists of a sequence of connected nodes, where each node contains a value and the address of the next node.
- Pointers are used to connect the consecutive nodes.
- The firs...

Real-world applications of linked list
Linked lists have many practical applications in the real world. Here are a few examples:
- Text editors: Text editors often use linked lists to implement their undo/redo functionality. A new node indi...

Types of linked list
Singly linked list: A singly linked list is a linear data structure that consists of a sequence of nodes, each containing a value and a pointer pointing to the next node in the sequence.
- The first node in the list is called the head node, and ...

Definitions:
Arrays: An array is a collection of similar data elements stored in contiguous memory locations and accessed by a common name or index. The elements in an array can be of any data type, such as integers, characters, or even other...

Doubly linked list
Doubly linked list
Definition: : A doubly linked list is a linear data structure that is similar to a singly linked list, but each node has a value and two pointers: one to the next node and one to the previous node.
Diagram:  provides the ‘list’ container, which is a doubly-linked list implementation.
It offers several member functions to manipulate and access elements in the list.
