what are caches and why are they so important
how to use doubly linked lists to implement caches
theory behind LRU caches
implementation in Python

Overall it is great. A bit easier than than the expectation. Some part of contents are not consistent in this version. For example, the Caches section refers to Splay Tree, which is the section after the Caches in this version; the Splay Tree section refers to Red-Black tree, which is removed in this version.
