- Each link references the next link and the previous one.
- A Doubly Linked List (DLL) contains an extra pointer, typically called previous
pointer, together with next pointer and data which are there in singly linked list.
- Advantages over SLL - IT can be traversed in both forward and backward direction.,
- Advantages over SLL - It can be traversed in both forward and backward direction.
