the 2 data structures are a list (for O(n) insertion) & a hash-map that keys the list elements.
insert requires a list traversal bcz hashmap doesnt maintain ordering, so we cannot search an adjacent item.
once we insert the item into the list, we update the hash-map so a lookup will yield the pointer to that object.
delete requires lookup using hash-map (O(1), followed by the removal of entry from hash-map (O(1) & then unlink of object from list (O(1)
