A linked list is a data structure that holds a group of data items which represents a sequence. Here each data item is referred to as a node. The nodes contain data and are interconnected to the next node in the sequence via their links. More complex forms of the list add additional links. The main advantage of a linked list is quick insertion and deletion. The linked list is a linear data structure like arrays, but unlike arrays, elements are not stored in a contiguous location. Like arrays, a linked list is a linear data structure (Figure 6-1).
