In this #sidenotes we will talk about Linked List as an Abstract Data Type and as a Data Structure.

Abstract data types, commonly abbreviated ADTs, are a way of classifying data structures based on how they are used and the behaviors they provide. They do not specify how the data structure must be implemented but simply provide a minimal expected interface and set of behaviors.

Data Structure is a concrete implementation of a data type. Its possible to analyze the time and memory complexity of a Data Structure but not from a data type. The Data Structure can be implemented in several ways and its implementation may vary from language to language.

Linked List Abstract Data Type

Linked List is an Abstract Data Type (ADT) that holds a collection of Nodes, the nodes can be accessed in a sequential way. Linked List doesnt provide a random access to a Node.

Usually, those Nodes are connected to the next node and/or with the previous one, this gives the linked effect. When the Nodes are connected with only the next pointer the list is called Singly Linked List and when its connected by the next and previous the list is called Doubly Linked List.

The Nodes stored in a Linked List can be anything from primitives types such as integers to more complex types like instances of classes.

ADT Interface

The Linked List interface can be implemented in different ways, is important to have operations to insert a new node and to remove a Node:

# Main operations
prepend(value) -> Add a node in the beginning
append(value) -> Add a node in the end
pop() -> Remove a node from the end
popFirst() -> Remove a node from the beginninghead() -> Return the first node
tail() -> Return the last node
remove(Node) -> Remove Node from the list

Since abstract data types dont specify an implementation, this means its also incorrect to talk about the time complexity of a given abstract data type.

ADT Operations

Traversal : You must be thinking, how could I print all the elements of a Linked List?
A Linked List can be traversed , is possible to navigate in the list using the nodes next element.

list = LinkedList(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)currentNode = LinkedList.head() # Get the first Nodewhile the currentNode.next
print currentNode.value currentNode = currentNode.next # Assign the next element

This is an abstract operation and the implementation will define how you interact with the Linked List.

Search: You must be thinking, how do I find an element inside the Linked List?

Is possible to traverse the array and compare if the element we are looking for exists in the array:

list = LinkedList(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)
targetValue = 7currentNode = LinkedList.head() # Get the first Nodewhile the currentNode.next
if currentNode.value is equal to targetValue
print Node found currentNode = currentNode.next # Assign the next element

This is an example of how we could search for an element inside a Linked List, but this could be not the optimal way. There are different and, in some cases, better algorithms to traverse and search in arrays.

Linked List Data Structure

Implementation

A Linked List can be implemented in different ways, this is my implementation and its used to explain the concepts. The ADT defines what a Linked List should be able to do and the Data Structure is the implementation.

The implementation could use Nodes with a previous and next pointers, the LinkedList could have a head to keep track of the first element and a tail to keep track of the last element in the list. Theres a lot of improvement points to this implementation, the focus here is to understand the basics of a Linked List.

To have in mind: LinkedList could be a memory waste in some cases, before choosing a data structure we should have in mind how we want to use the data and what are the operations we want to optimize. Depending on the use case a Stack or Queue could be a better Data Structure if we want to have fast insert or remove in one of the ends. An Array or a Dynamic Array would solve a lot of use cases as well, lets think before using a Data Structure 🙂

Python Implementation

This is a basic implementation of a Singly Linked List without a tail reference for the last item.

Singly Linked List without a tail reference

This is a Singly Linked List with a tail reference:

Singly Linked List Using tail reference

Complexity

# Singly Linked List – Without a tail reference
O(1) -> prepend, popFirst
O(N) -> append, pop, remove, tail# Singly Linked List – With a tail reference
O(1) -> prepend, popFirst, append, tail
O(N) -> pop, remove

Improvements

Using a Doubly Linked List would be possible to have an O(1) to pop method because we would have a previous pointer that would optimize the process of finding the second-last element to pop .

Following the same implementation pattern, a Doubly Linked List would have a complexity similar to:

# Doubly Linked List – Without a tail reference
O(1) -> prepend, popFirst
O(N) -> append, pop, remove, tail# Doubly Linked List – With a tail reference
O(1) -> prepend, popFirst, append, tail, pop
O(N) -> remove

This is my side notes about Linked List, hope it helped you as it helps me 🙂
