Python program to delete a new node from the beginning of the doubly linked list
When it is required to delete a node from the beginning of a doubly linked list, a ‘Node’ class needs to be created. In this class, there are three attributes, the data that is present in the node, the access to the next node of the linked list, and the access to the previous node of the linked list.
Below is a demonstration for the same −
Example
class Node:
def __init__(self, my_data):
self.prev = None
self.data = my_data
self.next = None
class double_list:
def __init__(self):
self.head = None
self.tail = None
def add_data(self, my_data):
new_node = Node(my_data)
if(self.head == None):
self.head = self.tail = new_node;
self.head.previous = None;
self.tail.next = None;
else:
self.tail.next = new_node;
new_node.previous = self.tail;
self.tail = new_node;
self.tail.next = None;
def print_it(self):
curr = self.head
if (self.head == None):
print("The list is empty")
return
print("The nodes in the doubly linked list are :")
while curr != None:
print(curr.data)
curr = curr.next
def delete_from_beginning(self):
if(self.head == None):
return;
else:
if(self.head != self.tail):
self.head = self.head.next;
self.head.previous = None;
else:
self.head = self.tail = None;
my_instance = double_list()
print("Elements are being added to the doubly linked list")
my_instance.add_data(10)
my_instance.add_data(24)
my_instance.add_data(54)
my_instance.add_data(77)
my_instance.add_data(92)
my_instance.print_it()
while(my_instance.head != None):
my_instance.delete_from_beginning();
print("The list after deleting the element from the beginning is : ");
my_instance.print_it();Output
Elements are being added to the doubly linked list The nodes in the doubly linked list are : 10 24 54 77 92 The list after deleting the element from the beginning is : The nodes in the doubly linked list are : 24 54 77 92 The list after deleting the element from the beginning is : The nodes in the doubly linked list are : 54 77 92 The list after deleting the element from the beginning is : The nodes in the doubly linked list are : 77 92 The list after deleting the element from the beginning is : The nodes in the doubly linked list are : 92 The list after deleting the element from the beginning is : The list is empty
Explanation
- The ‘Node’ class is created.
- Another class with required attributes is created.
- A method named ‘add_data’ is defined, that is used to add data to the doubly linked list.
- Another method named ‘print_it’ is defined, that displays the nodes of the circular linked list.
- Another method named ‘delete_from_beginning’ is defined, that deletes the node from the beginning, i.e the ‘head’ node and makes the next node as the head node in the circular linked list.
- An object of the ‘double_list’ class is created, and the methods are called on it to delete a node from the beginning of the doubly linked list.
- An ‘init’ method is defined, that the root, head, and tail nodes of the doubly linked list to None.
- The list is iterated over, and every node from the beginning is deleted until its empty.
- This is displayed on the console using the ‘print_it’ method.
