O(n) I'd say. You need to copy nearly the whole list, and sometimes
re-a

good talk about the implementation of Python lists and other container

If you want O(log n), you can use the b
Hello,
I would like to know how much it costs to insert an element into a list
using this operation:
a[2:2] = [ 1 ]
i. e, what is the complexity of the operation above (given that len(a) = n)?
Thanks.

hi
i have a list (after reading from a file), say
data = [ 'a','b','c','d','a','b','e','d']
I wanted to insert a word after every 'a', and before every 'd'. so i
use enumerate this list:
for num,item in enumerate(data):
if "a" in item:
data.insert(num+1,"aword")
if "d" in item:

Randy Bush enlightened us with:

shouldn't that last line be this?
self.next.prev = hold

What did you expect, and wha
What you've posted looks right, more or less.
To get any sort of meaningful feedback, you really need to post a full
version of your code, including the print statements, what's being
printed, and why you think this shows the code is not working. What
you've shown is far too little for anybody els
