Chapter 17 Linked List
Objective • Linked lists • basic ideas: header nodes and iterator classes • Implementation details • doubly linked lists • circular linked lists
arrayname • Arrays • contiguous • direct access of elements • insertion / deletion difficult • Linked Lists • noncontiguous • must scan for element • insertion /deletion easy
a Iterating through a data structure for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) cout<< a[i]; for (ListNode p = theList.first; p != null; p = p.next) cout<< p.data ;
Adding an element A0 A1 A2 first last class ListNode { Object data; ListNode* next; } At any point, we can add a new last item x by doing this: last->next = new ListNode(); last = last->next; last->data = x; last->next = null;
A0 A1 A2 first last class ListNode { Object data; ListNode* next; } At any point, we can add a new last item x by doing this: last->next = new ListNode() ; last = last->next; last->data = x; last->next = null;
A0 A1 A2 first last class ListNode { Object data; ListNode* next; } At any point, we can add a new last item x by doing this: last->next = new ListNode(); last = last->next; last->data = x; last->next = null;
A0 A1 A2 x first last class ListNode { Object data; ListNode* next; } At any point, we can add a new last item x by doing this: last->next = new ListNode(); last = last->next; last->data = x; last->next = null;
A0 A1 A2 x first last class ListNode { Object data; ListNode* next; } At any point, we can add a new last item x by doing this: last->next = new ListNode(); last = last->next; last->data = x; last->next = null;
Inserting an element A0 A1 A2 current first last class ListNode { Object element; ListNode* next; } At any point, we can add a new last item x by doing this: tmp = new ListNode(); tmp->element = x; tmp->next = current->next; Current->next = tmp;
A0 A1 A2 current first last class ListNode { Object element; ListNode* next; } At any point, we can add a new last item x by doing this: tmp = new ListNode(); tmp->element = x; tmp->next = current->next; Current->next = tmp; tmp
A0 A1 A2 current x first last class ListNode { Object element; ListNode* next; } At any point, we can add a new last item x by doing this: tmp = new ListNode(); tmp->element = x; tmp->next = current->next; current->next = tmp; tmp
A0 A1 A2 current x first last class ListNode { Object element; ListNode* next; } At any point, we can add a new last item x by doing this: tmp = new ListNode(); tmp->element = x; tmp->next = current->next; current->next = tmp; tmp
A0 A1 A2 current x first last class ListNode { Object element; ListNode* next; } At any point, we can add a new last item x by doing this: tmp = new ListNode(); tmp->element = x; tmp->next = current->next; current->next = tmp; tmp
Simplified version current->next = new ListNode(x, current->next);
Deleting an element A0 A1 A2 current last class ListNode { Object element; ListNode* next; } current->next = current->next->next;
Deleting an element A0 A1 A2 current last class ListNode { Object element; ListNode* next; } Current->next = current->next->next; Memory leak!
Deleting an element A0 A1 A2 current last Node *deletedNode = current->next; current->next = current->next->next; delete deletedNode;
Header Nodes a b c header Header nodes allow us to avoid special cases [in the code] such as insertion of the first element and removal of the last element. The header node holds no data but serves to satisfy the requirement that every node have a previous node. Not necessarily a standard implementation.
C++ implementation • We have a list. • This list consists of listNodes. • In order to access these listNodes, we need an iterator. • Code: online
Doubly Linked Lists a b c head tail Consider how hard it is to back up in a singly linked list. Also consider text editor example class DoubleListNode { Object element; ListNode* next; ListNode* prev; }

Sorted Linked List A sorted link list is one in which items are in sorted order. It can be derived from a list class. code
Common errors (Page 599 ) • Splicing in nodes incorrectly when performing insertion • Forgetting incomplete class declaration • Calling delete at wrong time during remove() • More errors on page 599 are given
In class exercises … • Question 17.3 from the book. Write an algorithm for printing a singly linked list in reverse. (Don’t use recursion).
In class exercises • Question 17.7 from the book. Suppose that you have a pointer to a node in singly linked list that guaranteed not to be the last node in the list. You do not have pointers to any other nodes (except by following links). Describe an O(1) algorithm that logically removes the value stored in such a node from the linked list, maintaining the integrity of the linked list (Hint: Involve the next node)
