MATLAB: The previous node in a linked list??

Question

Are you able to access the previous node in a linked list? Like to traverse to the next node in a linked list it would just be

list.node(x).next

but what about the previous node? I assumed it to be something like this:

list.node(x).prev

But unfortunately that's not right….

Answer 1

That would depend on whether your list implementation is singly or doubly linked. In the latter case, nodes have info about the previous and next nodes however for singly they only know about the next node.

What kind of thing is list.node(x)? If it is an MCOS object then you can have a look at its methods and properties with:

 methods(list.node(x))
 properties(list.node(x))

and see if something is available for you.
