Question

Write C++ program that that contain functions
1) A function to Delete the last node of doubly Linked List
2)A function at deletes the 2nd-last node of the doubly Linked List
3)A function that displays the Linked lists
Call the functions in main

NOTE:
1) make class or struct
2)No global declarations
