# Struct std::collections::linked_list::Cursor[−][src]

    pub struct Cursor<'a, T> where
        T: 'a,  { /* fields omitted */ }

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`linked_list_cursors` #58533)

A cursor over a `LinkedList`.

A `Cursor` is like an iterator, except that it can freely seek back-and-forth.

Cursors always rest between two elements in the list, and index in a logically circular way. To accommodate this, there is a “ghost” non-element that yields `None` between the head and tail of the list.

When created, cursors start at the front of the list, or the “ghost” non-element if the list is empty.

## Implementations

### `impl<'a, T> Cursor<'a, T>`[src]

#### `pub fn index(&self) -> Option<usize>`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`linked_list_cursors` #58533)

Returns the cursor position index within the `LinkedList`.

This returns `None` if the cursor is currently pointing to the “ghost” non-element.

#### `pub fn move_next(&mut self)`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`linked_list_cursors` #58533)

Moves the cursor to the next element of the `LinkedList`.

If the cursor is pointing to the “ghost” non-element then this will move it to the first element of the `LinkedList`. If it is pointing to the last element of the `LinkedList` then this will move it to the “ghost” non-element.

#### `pub fn move_prev(&mut self)`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`linked_list_cursors` #58533)

Moves the cursor to the previous element of the `LinkedList`.

If the cursor is pointing to the “ghost” non-element then this will move it to the last element of the `LinkedList`. If it is pointing to the first element of the `LinkedList` then this will move it to the “ghost” non-element.

#### `pub fn current(&self) -> Option<&'a T>`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`linked_list_cursors` #58533)

Returns a reference to the element that the cursor is currently pointing to.

This returns `None` if the cursor is currently pointing to the “ghost” non-element.

#### `pub fn peek_next(&self) -> Option<&'a T>`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`linked_list_cursors` #58533)

Returns a reference to the next element.

If the cursor is pointing to the “ghost” non-element then this returns the first element of the `LinkedList`. If it is pointing to the last element of the `LinkedList` then this returns `None`.

#### `pub fn peek_prev(&self) -> Option<&'a T>`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`linked_list_cursors` #58533)

Returns a reference to the previous element.

If the cursor is pointing to the “ghost” non-element then this returns the last element of the `LinkedList`. If it is pointing to the first element of the `LinkedList` then this returns `None`.
