链接列表和双链表

作为我大学工作的一部分,我需要了解我给出的链表代码。 我遇到插入方法的问题 - 处理一般情况的部分 - 与下面的代码一样:

//In the general case, we need to chain down the linked list
    //from the head until we find the location for the new
    //list node. If we reach the end of the list before finding
    //the specified location, we know that the given index was out
    //of range and throw an exception.
    else {
      Node nodePointer = listHead;
      int i = 1;
      while (i < index) {
        nodePointer = nodePointer.next;
        i += 1;
        if (nodePointer == null) {
          throw new SequenceListException("Indexed Element out of Range");
        }
      }

      //Now we've found the node before the position of the
      //new one, so we 'hook in' the new Node.

      nodePointer.next = new Node(o, nodePointer.next);

我遇到的问题是我可以看到该方法插入节点并使其指向下一个节点,但它取代的节点又如何呢?据我所知,它取代的节点没有变化,这意味着现在有2个节点指向同一个next.node。 我误解了这个,或者这是怎么回事?如果是这样,这对我来说似乎不合逻辑,因为现在有2个节点指向单个节点。 如果不是这种情况,代码中的哪一点会更改前一个节点的指针

整个代码如下:

class SequenceListException extends Exception {
  SequenceListException() {
    super();
  }
  SequenceListException(String s) {
    super(s);
  }
}

答案 0 :(得分:0)

这行代码负责创建新节点,将其指向下一个链接,并使前一个节点指向新节点:

nodePointer.next = new Node(o, nodePointer.next);

首先,new Node(o, nodePointer.next)创建一个新节点并将其指向行中的下一个节点。然后,将对新创建的节点的引用分配给nodePointer.next

澄清一下,你问:

  

“据我所知,它取代的节点没有变化”

nodePointer是对索引之前的节点的引用,因此nodePointer.next是被“替换”的节点。
