I am looking for use cases of singly|doubly linked lists, I (nearly) never need them in my code. Few questions: 1) What's a typical (or average) length of your list? 2) Are items sorted (like from the bigger to the smaller one)? 3) Is the item order important (so is it OK to shuffle them in some other ways)? 4a) How often/many do you need to add items to the list? 4b) How often/many do you need to remove items to the list?
