sicp exercise 3.23
; Exercise 3.23. A deque (``double-ended queue'') is a sequence in which items can be inserted and deleted at either the front or the rear. Operations on deques are the constructor make-deque, the predicate empty-deque?, selectors front-deque and rear-deque, and mutators front-insert-deque!, rear-insert-deque!, front-delete-deque!, and rear-delete-deque!. Show how to represent deques using pairs, and give implementations of the operations. All operations should be accomplished in O(1) steps.

it was difficult to get an elegant looking solution without defining the abstractions for the doubly-linked-nodes.
this is one thing i learned from this exercise is that never postpone defining good abstractions. :)
