从 Java 中的双向链表实现中删除特定 link 的说明

Question

根据我正在阅读的书，我正在 java 中编写双重 linked 列表的实现。虽然到目前为止我的逻辑已经很不错了，但我有两个本书没有涉及的问题。我的疑问在于从列表中删除特定 link(node) 的方法[其数据 (int) 字段与传递给该方法的键相匹配]。

我的问题是：

当要删除的link原来是列表中的firstlink时，为什么next节点的previous不是字段设置为 null，因为 next 节点现在将成为 link 中的第一个节点，因此不会通过 previous 引用任何内容？我的意思是：current.next.previous = null
同理，当要删除的link是link中的last时，为什么previous节点的nextlink 设置为 null？这个新节点将是列表中的最后一个节点，因此显然它不会引用任何其他 link 到 next。我的意思是：current.previous.next = null

这是我的完整实现，请原谅评论太多，我只是想记录一下我在做什么。

/**
 * Created by Manish on 10/25/2015.
 * this is an implementation of a doubly linked list, it differs from a singly linked list in that you can traverse
 * backwards along the list. For this, every Link(node) in the list has a reference to the previous link called previous
 * Insertion routine has 3 methods - insertFirst(), insertLast() and insertAfter() which allows you to insert a node
 * at the beginning, at the end or after a specific item in the list
 * Deletion routine has 3 methods - deleteFirst(), deleteLast() and deleteKey(). the deleteKey() method allows to look
 * up a specific node and then delete it.
 * this doubly linked list is also a double ended list in that it always keeps a reference to the last node in the list
 * (along with the firs)

Answer 1

When the link to be deleted turns out to be the first link in the list, why isn't the next node's previous field being set to null

这条指令设置为空：

current.next.previous = current.previous;

的确，如果current是第一个节点，current.previous为null，下一个节点的previous也因此设置为current.previous.

为null

最后一个节点的next也一样，被

设置为null

current.previous.next = current.next;
