In this chapter, you learned about the linked list data structure and its variants, the doubly linked list and the circular linked list. You learned how to remove and add elements at any position, and how to iterate through a linked list. You also learned that the most important advantage of a linked list over an array is that you can easily add and remove elements from a linked list without shifting over its elements. So, whenever you need to add and remove lots of elements, the best option would be a linked list instead of an array. In the next chapter, you will learn about sets, the last sequential data structure that we will cover in this book.

Overview of this book
This book begins by covering basics of the JavaScript language and introducing ECMAScript 7, before gradually moving on to the current implementations of ECMAScript 6. You will gain an in-depth knowledge of how hash tables and set data structure functions, as well as how trees and hash maps can be used to search files in a HD or represent a database. This book is an accessible route deeper into JavaScript. Graphs being one of the most complex data structures you’ll encounter, we’ll also give you a better understanding of why and how graphs are largely used in GPS navigation systems in social networks.
Toward the end of the book, you’ll discover how all the theories presented by this book can be applied in real-world solutions while working on your own computer networks and Facebook searches.
