- robryan 16y agoWhy a linked list? Wouldn't something resembling a hash table or even a tree be a lot better. I think with web development a lot of the situations where you would want a linked list are abstracted away. Personally I would be testing people on how they take some kind of design outline and map out how they would approach it. Something like dealing with bringing together multiple API's to would be high on the list, this is becoming a much bigger part of web development.
