What I have tried:

What modification do I make so that it does not print none ?(the code linked list)
the output :
Current position: None
case 1, ans = 84
Current position: None
case 2, ans = 38
Current position: None
case 3, ans = 100 win
Current position: None
case 4, ans = 61 
Current position: None
case 5, ans = 95
Current position: None
case 6, ans = 38
Current position: None
case 7, ans = 5
Current position: None
case 8, ans = 31
Current position: None
case 9, ans =99

Firstly, start by finding out where it's printing "Current position: None" - there are two places that explicitly print that, and one that could print that if the valuer of current._element was None. You can use the debugger to step through your code and find that out: pdb — The Python Debugger — Python 3.12.1 documentation[^] will help if you don't know how to use it.

Then look at why it got to that position, what path if followed and why. What caused it to go that way? What variables didn't have the expected values? What were they set to; what should they contain? Where should they have been set? Why weren't they?

When you know all that, it should be fairly clear to the author that code (i.e. you) what the problem is and you should be able to fix it.

But getting your code to run properly is a big part of an assignment, and you won't learn how to fix complicated code until you can fix simple code like this!
