Basic Usage

Because it makes no sense to do otherwise, the next and prev pointers are not hidden from you and can be manipulated directly for efficiency.

Lists

Example:

import std/lists
var list = initDoublyLinkedList[int]()
let
  a = newDoublyLinkedNode[int](3)
  b = newDoublyLinkedNode[int](7)
  c = newDoublyLinkedNode[int](9)

list.add(a)
list.add(b)
list.prepend(c)

assert a.next == b
assert a.prev == c
assert c.next == a
assert c.next.next == b
assert c.prev == nil
assert b.next == nil

Rings

Example:

import std/lists
var ring = initSinglyLinkedRing[int]()
let
  a = newSinglyLinkedNode[int](3)
  b = newSinglyLinkedNode[int](7)
  c = newSinglyLinkedNode[int](9)

ring.add(a)
ring.add(b)
ring.prepend(c)

assert c.next == a
assert a.next == b
assert c.next.next == b
assert b.next == c
assert c.next.next.next == c

proc remove[T](L: var SinglyLinkedList[T]; n: SinglyLinkedNode[T]): bool {.
