LinkedList class

A specialized double-linked list of elements that extends LinkedListEntry.

This is not a generic data structure. It only accepts elements that extend the LinkedListEntry class. See the Queue implementations for generic collections that allow constant time adding and removing at the ends.

This is not a List implementation. Despite its name, this class does not implement the List interface. It does not allow constant time lookup by index.

Because the elements themselves contain the links of this linked list, each element can be in only one list at a time. To add an element to another list, it must first be removed from its current list (if any).

In return, each element knows its own place in the linked list, as well as which list it is in. This allows constant time LinkedListEntry.insertAfter, LinkedListEntry.insertBefore and LinkedListEntry.unlink operations when all you have is the element.

A LinkedList also allows constant time adding and removing at either end, and a constant time length getter.

Object

LinkedList

Constructors

LinkedList(): Construct a new empty linked list.

Properties

first → E read-only
isEmpty → bool read-only
iterator → Iterator<E> read-only
last → E read-only
length → int read-only
single → E read-only
hashCode → int read-only, inherited: The hash code for this object.
isNotEmpty → bool read-only, inherited: Returns true if there is at least one element in this collection.
runtimeType → Type read-only, inherited: A representation of the runtime type of the object.

Operators

operator ==(other) → bool inherited: The equality operator.

Methods

add(E entry) → void: Add entry to the end of the linked list.
addAll(Iterable<E> entries) → void: Add entries to the end of the linked list.
addFirst(E entry) → void: Add entry to the beginning of the linked list.
clear() → void: Remove all elements from this linked list.
forEach(void action(E entry)) → void: Call action with each entry in this linked list.
remove(E entry) → bool: Remove entry from the linked list.
any(bool f(E element)) → bool inherited: Checks whether any element of this iterable satisfies test.
contains(Object element) → bool inherited: Returns true if the collection contains an element equal to element.
elementAt(int index) → E inherited: Returns the indexth element.
every(bool f(E element)) → bool inherited: Checks whether every element of this iterable satisfies test.
expand<T>(Iterable<T> f(E element)) → Iterable<T> inherited: Expands each element of this Iterable into zero or more elements.
firstWhere(bool test(E element), { E orElse() }) → E inherited: Returns the first element that satisfies the given predicate test.
fold<T>(T initialValue, T combine(T previousValue, E element)) → T inherited: Reduces a collection to a single value by iteratively combining each element of the collection with an existing value
join([String separator = "" ]) → String inherited: Converts each element to a String and concatenates the strings.
lastWhere(bool test(E element), { E orElse() }) → E inherited: Returns the last element that satisfies the given predicate test.
map<T>(T f(E e)) → Iterable<T> inherited: Returns a new lazy Iterable with elements that are created by calling f on each element of this Iterable in iteration order.
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic inherited: Invoked when a non-existent method or property is accessed.
reduce(E combine(E value, E element)) → E inherited: Reduces a collection to a single value by iteratively combining elements of the collection using the provided function.
singleWhere(bool test(E element)) → E inherited: Returns the single element that satisfies test.
skip(int count) → Iterable<E> inherited: Returns an Iterable that provides all but the first count elements.
skipWhile(bool test(E value)) → Iterable<E> inherited: Returns an Iterable that skips leading elements while test is satisfied.
take(int count) → Iterable<E> inherited: Returns a lazy iterable of the count first elements of this iterable.
takeWhile(bool test(E value)) → Iterable<E> inherited: Returns a lazy iterable of the leading elements satisfying test.
toList({bool growable: true }) → List<E> inherited: Creates a List containing the elements of this Iterable.
toSet() → Set<E> inherited: Creates a Set containing the same elements as this iterable.
toString() → String inherited: Returns a string representation of (some of) the elements of this.
where(bool test(E element)) → Iterable<E> inherited: Returns a new lazy Iterable with all elements that satisfy the predicate test.
