linked-lists

What problem does it solve?

Linked lists are a foundational data-structure for efficient insertions and dynamic memory usage, but implementing and reasoning about them is error-prone and verbose. This skill provides structured patterns, ready-to-use operations, and testing strategies for common linked-list variants including singly, doubly, circular lists, along with reversal, merging, and cycle detection.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Implement and manipulate singly and doubly linked lists
• Handle circular lists and list merging
• Efficient cycle detection using techniques like Floyd's algorithm
• Two-pointer strategies for common pointer problems
• Educational and interview-ready examples for practical study and project use

Quick Start

Set up a hands-on example to implement and test basic linked list operations including reversal and cycle detection.
