The best resource for most quiz answers will be the videos. The "Review Video" button in that question takes you right to the one on What Is a Linked List?. About 9 minutes into the video, the instructor says:

Since every node points to the next node, to find a particular node, we can go from one node to the next in a process called list traversal.

I entered traversal as the answer but it is marked down as incorrect. Could someone please let me know why this is so?

That's odd — when I copy and paste that directly into the answer blank, I get "Well done! That's the correct answer."

I think it is just an error on how they made it.

that is strange because the Review Video button takes me to video called "Implementing Search" but the video I need to look at is called "What Is a Linked List?".

Odd, I just tried it a 2nd time, and both times the button took me to the correct video.
