Data Structures: Sequences!
Haskell's basic "list" type works like a singly linked list. However, the lack of access to elements at the back means it isn't useful for a lot of algorithms. A double ended linked list (AKA a queue) allows a lot more flexibility.
In Haskell, we can get this double-ended behavior with the Sequence type. This type works like lists in some ways, but it has a lot of unique operators and mechanics. So it's worth reading up on it here in the latest part of our Data Structures Series. Here's a quick review of the series so far:
We have one more structure to look at next time, so this series is going to bleed into August a bit, so make sure to come back next week!
