Description: API documentation for the Rust `LinkedList` struct in crate `std`.

# 1.0.0[−][src]Struct std::collections::linked_list::LinkedList

    pub struct LinkedList<T> { /* fields omitted */ }

A doubly-linked list with owned nodes.

The `LinkedList` allows pushing and popping elements at either end in constant time.

NOTE: It is almost always better to use `Vec` or `VecDeque` because array-based containers are generally faster, more memory efficient, and make better use of CPU cache.

## Methods

### `impl<T> LinkedList<T>`[src]

#### `pub const fn new() -> LinkedList<T>`[src]

Creates an empty `LinkedList`.

# Examples

    use std::collections::LinkedList;

    let list: LinkedList<u32> = LinkedList::new();

Run

#### `pub fn append(&mut self, other: &mut LinkedList<T>)`[src]

Moves all elements from `other` to the end of the list.

This reuses all the nodes from `other` and moves them into `self`. After this operation, `other` becomes empty.

This operation should compute in O(1) time and O(1) memory.

# Examples

    use std::collections::LinkedList;

    let mut list1 = LinkedList::new();
    list1.push_back('a');

    let mut list2 = LinkedList::new();
    list2.push_back('b');
    list2.push_back('c');

    list1.append(&mut list2);

    let mut iter = list1.iter();
    assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&'a'));
    assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&'b'));
    assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&'c'));
    assert!(iter.next().is_none());

    assert!(list2.is_empty());

Run

#### `pub fn prepend(&mut self, other: &mut LinkedList<T>)`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`linked_list_prepend`)

Moves all elements from `other` to the begin of the list.

#### `pub fn iter(&self) -> Iter<T>`[src]

    let mut list: LinkedList<u32> = LinkedList::new();

    list.push_back(0);
    list.push_back(1);
    list.push_back(2);

    let mut iter = list.iter();
    assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&0));

    list.push_back(2);

    for element in list.iter_mut() {
        *element += 10;
    }

    let mut iter = list.iter();
    assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(&10));

#### `pub fn drain_filter<F>(&mut self, filter: F) -> DrainFilter<T, F> where
F: FnMut(&mut T) -> bool,` [src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`drain_filter` #43244)

recently added

Creates an iterator which uses a closure to determine if an element should be removed.

If the closure returns true, then the element is removed and yielded. If the closure returns false, the element will remain in the list and will not be yielded by the iterator.

Note that `drain_filter` lets you mutate every element in the filter closure, regardless of whether you choose to keep or remove it.

# Examples

Splitting a list into evens and odds, reusing the original list:

    #![feature(drain_filter)]
    use std::collections::LinkedList;

    let mut numbers: LinkedList<u32> = LinkedList::new();
    numbers.extend(&[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 13, 14, 15]);

    let evens = numbers.drain_filter(|x| *x % 2 == 0).collect::<LinkedList<_>>();
    let odds = numbers;

    assert_eq!(evens.into_iter().collect::<Vec<_>>(), vec![2, 4, 6, 8, 14]);
    assert_eq!(odds.into_iter().collect::<Vec<_>>(), vec![1, 3, 5, 9, 11, 13, 15]);
