Okay, the first challenge in this section 2

2

is to implement the addBefore method 3

3

for the EmployeeDoublyLinkedList class. 4

4

This method will take two employees. 5

5

The first employee will be the employee 6

6

you want to add to the list 7

7

and the second employee will be 8

8

an existing employee in the list 9

9

and what the addBefore method will do is 10

10

it will insert the new employee into the list 11

11

right before the existing employee. 12

12

So if you call addBefore and you pass 13

13

James Bond as the new employee, 14

14

and John Doe as the existing employee 15

15

then what this method should do is insert James Bond 16

16

right before John Doe, in the list. 17

17

Now there's a starter project in the Resources section 18

18

that you can use. 19

19

It has all the code you need. 20

20

So it has the code for the LinkedList, 21

21

it's the same LinkedList that we implemented 22

22

when we implemented the DoublyLinkedList 23

23

and it also has an empty addBefore method 24

24

inside the EmployeeDoublyLinkedList class. 25

25

And if you look at the main method 26

26

in the main.Java file, you'll see that there's code there 27

27

and that code should work when you're finished. 28

28

So once you've implemented the addBefore method, 29

29

run the main method and you should see 30

30

the new employee added before 31

31

the employee that you specified. 32

32

So good luck with this challenge 33

33

and I'll see you in the solution video.
