3 Abridged from Wikipedia, a linked list is defined as one of the fundamental data structures, which can be used to implement other data structures. It consists of a sequence of nodes, each containing arbitrary data fields and one or two references (links) pointing to the next and/or previous nodes. A linked list is a self-referential data type because it contains a pointer or link to another datum of the same type. Linked lists permit insertion and removal of nodes at any point in the list, but do not allow random access. Several different types of linked lists exist: singly linked lists, doubly linked lists, and circularly linked lists.
