There are many variations on Linear ADTs, but they all a common organizational structure: each data element that has been added to a Linear ADT has a singular successor and a singular predecessor (either of which may be null). There may or may not be any logical ordering based on element values, but there is always a physical ordering of successors and predecessors. So we have:
