I've wondered about Linked Lists for a while, but while there are many versions on PyPi, I can't find one that seems to be mature and maintained. Which seems to indicate that there isn't much demand for them.
I think this is probably because a linked list is more of a design pattern than a concrete data structure. In situations where you want a linked list in particular, rather than just a container that supports certain operations, you really need the references implementing the links to be embedded in the objects being kept in the list. This makes it difficult to abstract, especially if your objects need to be part of more than one list at a time. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/TFZAVVZ2A3WAMPTMNOPUSNGIZTWBRJNM/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
