Singly Linked List is a linear and connected data structure made of Nodes. Each node is composed of a variable data where its content is stored and a pointer to the next Node on the list. The Linked List has a pointer to the first element of this Node sequence and may also have another pointer to the last Node to make operations at the far end less time-consuming. You can also store a length variable to store the total length.

Advantages over Arrays

  • Size of a linked list is not fixed (dynamic size)
  • Deleting and adding an element is not expensive compared to an array

Drawbacks

  • Elements can be accessed sequentially not randomly compared to an array
  • Extra memory allocation needs to be done for pointers which connects elements in a linked list

Time Complexity

Operation Average Worst
Access O(n) O(n)
Search O(n) O(n)
Insertion O(1) O(1)
Deletion O(1) O(1)

Example

class LinkedList {
    Node head;      // Pointer to the first element
    Node tail;      // Optional. Points to the last element
