I haven't worked with a linked list since first or second year university, more than 10 years ago, nor have I had much of a reason to do character by character string analysis.
I could probably work these problems out, but I might not seem too confident about it.
- EduardoBautista 4y agoIt’s a basic data structure. I have been able to pass these questions without a formal University education just on logic alone. It’s just basic usage of objects in the case of a JavaScript implementation.

Just because you would make a linked list via objects doesn't mean that anyone would actually do it.

- iLoveOncall 4y agoI'm fine with providing a basic Node class for the linked-list if they struggle to start, but that's it. With that anybody should be able to figure it out, no matter how long ago were their classes on that (or if they had any).
