Java Newbie - Sorted Linked List not inserting properly - please help!

[bubbleboy]

I have no idea what to do after this point (I tried using debugger and I am really new to this.. ) i think the issue is in the else if statements but I have no idea how to correct them

what am i doing wrong and if you need more code for reference pls let me know i will PM it to you

Well, for starters, it does the exact same thing no matter if the new node is smaller, equal or greater than the one you're comparing to.

Oh..

but if i remove one of them, then nothing works =/

sorry im really new to java so forgive me if i describe my experience in a noobish way

If you are referring to the else if branches then that is not what was suggested. The subtle hint was the the 2 else if statements should be doing different things.

its messing up at the 3rd iteration and i've spent the past 4 hrs trying to understand how to correct it :(

this is driving me insane lol and i'm going to slap myself when i find the solution and find that it was either not very hard or time consuming ._.

sorry for double post it was just done in an attempt to get more answers. i didnt know i was breaking rules by doing that.

It's sorta an unwritten rule. Suppose I was providing help here while at the same time you are getting the same help in the other thread. Most people don't like wasting their time.
