👍 , but the space complexity is O(1) since you're not creating a new list.

raise NotImplementedError
return nil if @head.nil?

pointer = @head

while !pointer.nil?
if pointer.data == value
if pointer == @head
@head = pointer.next
end

if pointer == @tail
@tail = pointer.previous
end

if !pointer.next.nil?
pointer.next.previous = pointer.previous
end

if !pointer.previous.nil?
pointer.previous.next = pointer.next
end

return
