Doubly-linked list/Element insertion
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
This is much like inserting into a Singly-Linked List, but with added assignments so that the backwards-pointing links remain correct.

[edit] Ada
Define the procedure:
procedure Insert (Anchor : Link_Access; New_Link : Link_Access) is
begin
if Anchor /= Null and New_Link /= Null then
New_Link.Next := Anchor.Next;
New_Link.Prev := Anchor;
if New_Link.Next /= Null then
New_Link.Next.Prev := New_Link;
end if;
Anchor.Next := New_Link;
end if;
end Insert;
Create links and form the list.
procedure Make_List is
Link_Access : A, B, C;
begin
A := new Link;
B := new Link;
C := new Link;
A.Data := 1;
B.Data := 2;
C.Data := 2;
Insert(Anchor => A, New_Link => B); -- The list is (A, B)
Insert(Anchor => A, New_Link => C); -- The list is (A, C, B)
end Make_List;

[edit] C
Define the function:
void insert(link* anchor, link* newlink) {
newlink->next = anchor->next;
newlink->prev = anchor;
(newlink->next)->prev = newlink;
anchor->next = newlink;
}
Production code should also include checks that the passed links are valid (e.g. not null pointers). There should also be code to handle special cases, such as when *anchor is the end of the existing list (i.e. anchor->next is a null pointer).
To call the function:
Create links, and form the list:
link a, b, c;
a.next = &b;
a.prev = null;
a.data = 1;
b.next = null;
b.prev = &a;
b.data = 3;
c.data = 2;
This list is now {a,b}, and c is separate.
Now call the function:
insert(&a, &c);
This function call changes the list from {a,b} to {a,b,c}.
[edit] C#
The function handles creation of nodes in addition to inserting them.
static void InsertAfter(Link prev, int i)
{
if (prev.next != null)
{
prev.next.prev = new Link() { item = i, prev = prev, next = prev.next };
prev.next = prev.next.prev;
}
else
prev.next = new Link() { item = i, prev = prev };
}
Example use:
static void Main()
{
//Create A(5)->B(7)
var A = new Link() { item = 5 };
InsertAfter(A, 7);
//Insert C(15) between A and B
InsertAfter(A, 15);
}
[edit] Clojure
This sort of mutable structure is not idiomatic in Clojure. Doubly-linked list/Definition#Clojure or a finger tree implementation would be better.
