You want to create a class Node for a linked list where each node refers to itself and the next node. Which is the correct way to set the next node using self reference?
class Node:
    def __init__(self, value):
        self.value = value
        self.next = None
    def set_next(self, next_node):
        ???

Choose the correct line to replace ???.
Anext_node = self.next
Bnext = self.next_node
Cself.next_node = next_node
Dself.next = next_node
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand attribute assignment with self

    To update the current object's next attribute, use self.next.
  2. Step 2: Match the correct assignment

    Assigning self.next = next_node correctly sets the next node reference.
  3. Final Answer:

    self.next = next_node -> Option D
  4. Quick Check:

    Use self.attribute = value to update instance data [OK]
Quick Trick: Use self.attribute to refer to current object's data [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Assigning to local variable instead of self attribute
  • Mixing attribute names
  • Forgetting self in assignment
