To insert a new node in a sorted doubly linked list, we need to traverse the list until we find a node with a larger value than the value of the new node to be inserted. Once we find that node, we insert the new node before it.
Here's an implementation of the insert
method for a sorted doubly linked list in Python:
main.py1135 chars38 lines
In this method, we first create a new node with the given data. If the list is empty, we make the new node the head and return. Otherwise, we check if the new node is smaller than the head. If it is, we insert it before the head and return.
If the new node is not smaller than the head, we traverse the list until we find a node whose data is larger than the new node. We then insert the new node before that node.
Note that this method assumes that the list is already sorted in ascending order. If the list is not sorted, the method will insert the new node at the correct position assuming that the remaining nodes are also in ascending order.
