- You need to store information about the gardening tools that you sell in your online store. To do so, you maintain a list of product records, each of which contains information about a single type of product, including how many copies of it you have in stock. You don't tend to change the types of tools that you sell, and thus items are seldom added or removed from the list. However, you need to update a product's record whenever your inventory of that product changes (e.g., because someone purchases one!). A product's position in the list is also its product ID, and therefore updating a record involves using the product ID to get the corresponding record and modifying its contents.
- You need to maintain a list of tweets that are made by government officials in the current week. The number of tweets can vary widely from week to week in a way that is hard to predict.

You need to frequently display the tweets in reverse chronological order - from most recent to least recent.
