    2 way List

    I have a list, having nodes with only int an a pointer to the next node.
    I want to make my list 2 way (meaning that i need to add one more pointer to the previous node).
    This is my try for one way
    Code:
    struct AkeraiosStruct {
               int Value;
               AkeraiosStruct * next;
    } AkeraiosStruct;
    
    void insert_at_end (AkeraiosStruct * * ptraddr, int v)
                           /* Insert v as last element of list *ptraddr */
                           
    { 
        AkeraiosStruct * templist;
        templist = * ptraddr;
        while (*ptraddr != NULL)                     /* Go to end of list */
        ptraddr = &((*ptraddr)->next);/* Prepare what we need to change */
        *ptraddr = malloc(sizeof(struct AkeraiosStruct)); /* Space for new node */
        (*ptraddr)->Value = v;                               /* Put value */ 
        (*ptraddr)->next = NULL;              /* There is no next element */
    }
    
    
    void insert_at_start(AkeraiosStruct * *ptraddr, int v)
                          /* Insert v as first element of list *ptraddr */
    { AkeraiosStruct * templist;
      templist = *ptraddr;                /* Save current start of list */
      *ptraddr = malloc(sizeof(struct AkeraiosStruct)); /* Space for new node */
      (*ptraddr)->Value = v;                               /* Put value */
      (*ptraddr)->next = templist;      /* Next element is former first */
      
    }
    And this is my try for two way list
    Code:
    struct AkeraiosStruct {
               int Value;
               AkeraiosStruct * next;
               AkeraiosStruct * prev;
    } AkeraiosStruct;
    But i can't modify insert_at_start/end in order to add the prev pointer.

    So how do you expect to do this if you can't edit the code?

    I do edit my code but it fails
    Code:
    void insert_at_end (AkeraiosStruct * * ptraddr, int v)
                           /* Insert v as last element of list *ptraddr */
                           
    { 
        AkeraiosStruct * templist;
        AkeraiosStruct * templist_prv;
        templist = * ptraddr;
        
        while (*ptraddr != NULL)                     /* Go to end of list */
        ptraddr = &((*ptraddr)->next);/* Prepare what we need to change */
    
    
        templist_prv=&((*ptrddr);  
    
        *ptraddr = malloc(sizeof(struct AkeraiosStruct)); /* Space for new node */
        
        (*ptraddr)->Value = v;                               /* Put value */ 
    
        (*ptraddr)->next = NULL;              /* There is no next element */
    }
    
    void insert_at_start(AkeraiosStruct * *ptraddr, int v)
                          /* Insert v as first element of list *ptraddr */
    { AkeraiosStruct * templist;
       AkeraiosStruct * templist_prv;
      templist_prv=(*ptraddr)->prev;  /*Save current prev node*/
      templist = *ptraddr;                /* Save current start of list */
      *ptraddr = malloc(sizeof(struct AkeraiosStruct)); /* Space for new node */
      (*ptraddr)->Value = v;                               /* Put value */
      (*ptraddr)->prev=templist_prv;
      (*ptraddr)->next = templist;      /* Next element is former first */
      
    }
