Python program to delete a new node from the middle of the doubly linked list
#Represent a node of doubly linked list
class Node:
def __init__(self,data):
self.data = data;
self.previous = None;
self.next = None;
class DeleteMid:
#Represent the head and tail of the doubly linked list
def __init__(self):
self.head = None;
self.tail = None;
self.size = 0;
#addNode() will add a node to the list
def addNode(self, data):
#Create a new node
newNode = Node(data);
#If list is empty
if(self.head == None):
#Both head and tail will point to newNode
self.head = self.tail = newNode;
#head's previous will point to None
self.head.previous = None;
#tail's next will point to None, as it is the last node of the list
self.tail.next = None;
else:
#newNode will be added after tail such that tail's next will point to newNode
self.tail.next = newNode;
#newNode's previous will point to tail
newNode.previous = self.tail;
#newNode will become new tail
self.tail = newNode;
#As it is last node, tail's next will point to None
self.tail.next = None;
#Size will count the number of nodes present in the list
self.size = self.size + 1;
#deleteFromMid() will delete a node from middle of the list
def deleteFromMid(self):
#Checks whether list is empty
if(self.head == None):
return;
else:
#current will point to head
current = self.head;
#Store the mid position of the list
mid = (self.size//2) if(self.size % 2 == 0) else((self.size+1)//2);
#Iterate through list till current points to mid position
for i in range(1, mid):
current = current.next;
#If middle node is head of the list
if(current == self.head):
self.head = current.next;
#If middle node is tail of the list
elif(current == self.tail):
self.tail = self.tail.previous;
else:
current.previous.next = current.next;
current.next.previous = current.previous;
#Delete the middle node
current = None;
self.size = self.size - 1;
#display() will print out the nodes of the list
def display(self):
#Node current will point to head
current = self.head;
if(self.head == None):
print("List is empty");
return;
while(current != None):
#Prints each node by incrementing pointer.
print(current.data),
current = current.next;
print();
dList = DeleteMid();
#Add nodes to the list
dList.addNode(1);
dList.addNode(2);
dList.addNode(3);
dList.addNode(4);
dList.addNode(5);
#Printing original list
print("Original List: ");
dList.display();
while(dList.head != None):
dList.deleteFromMid();
#Printing updated list
print("Updated List: ")
dList.display();
Output:
Original List:
1 2 3 4 5
Updated List:
1 2 4 5
Updated List:
1 4 5
Updated List:
1 5
Updated List:
5
Updated List:
List is empty
