[LeetCode]LRU Cache

Design and implement a data structure for Least Recently Used (LRU) cache. It should support the following operations: get and set.

get(key) - Get the value (will always be positive) of the key if the key exists in the cache, otherwise return -1.
set(key, value) - Set or insert the value if the key is not already present. When the cache reached its capacity, it should invalidate the least recently used item before inserting a new item.

Analysis:

首先，对于cache，如果希望有O(1)的查找复杂度，肯定要用hashmap来保存key和对象的映射。对于LRU而言，问题在于如何用O(1)解决cache entry的替换问题。

简单的说，cache的存储是一个链表的话，那么只要保证从头到尾的顺序就是cache从新到旧的顺序就好了，对于任何一个节点，如果被访问了，那么就将该节点移至头部。如果cache已满，那么就把尾部的删掉，从头部插入新节点。

所以，需要用到两个数据结构

1. hashmap， 保存key和对象位置的映射

2. list，保存对象新旧程度的序列。不一定是list，也可以用vector，不过list的好处是已经实现了头尾操作的api，vector的话，还要自己写，麻烦。

用单向链表复杂度为O(lgn)

双向链表为O(1)

		tail = new CacheEntry(1, 1);
		head.next = tail;
		tail.pre = head;
    }
    
    public int get(int key) {//if contains key, just get value and update
        if(l_HashMapmap.containsKey(key)){
