+/**
+ * @file
+ * @brief Implementation for [LRU Cache]
+ * (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_replacement_policies#:~:text=Least%20Recently%20Used%20(LRU))
+ *
+ * @details
+ * LRU discards the least recently used value.
+ * Data structures used - doubly linked list and unordered_map
+ *
+ * unordered_map maps the key to the address of the node of the linked list.
+ * If the element is accessed, the element is moved to the beginning of the
+ * linked list.
+ *
+ * When the cache is full, the last element in the linked list is popped.
