Advanced Operations over Linked Lists

This article continues my previous talk about linked lists and basic operations that can be performed with them. If you haven’t read the first part, I recommend you do this at https://www.ivan-nikolov.com/2017/09/01/algorithms-and-data-structures-linked-lists.

Except just inserting, deleting and searching for elements, a linked list can be reversed, it can have a different sctucture, it can be maintained sorted, etc.

Algorithms and Data Structures – Linked Lists

Before I even start talking about linked lists in this post, I would like to strongly point out how important algorithms and data structures are. This is something a software engineer uses literally 100% of the time, even if we are talking about the simplest possible task. It is essential for someone to understand what algorithm complexity means and how it can affect their code and more importantly – the quality and the performance of their program.
