Singly Link List
Doubly Link List:
Doubly Link List contain a head, a data find and also a tail to point next data field or node.
Doubly Link List
Circular Link List:
In Circular Link List, the last tail point to the first nodes head. If we do like this, it's called
circular linked list otherwise it's called linear or open list.
Link List Operations
1. Pseudo-code for Insert at Beginning
Pseudo-code for Insert at Beginning
getcell(m) //here m is a new cell containing data 1
m -> data = 1
m -> link = head
head = m
2. Pseudo-code for insert at End
Pseudo-code for insert at End
while(head->link != NULL)
head = head-> link
m-> link = NULL
m->data = 8
head->link = m
3. Pseudo-code for delete from Beginning
Pseudo-code for delete from Beginning
temp = head
head = head->link
free(temp)
4. Pseudo-code for delete from End
Before deletion process:
Pseudo-code for delete from End(before)
temp = head
while(head->link != NULL)
{
temp = head
head = head->link
}
Pseudo-code for delete from End(before)
temp->link = NULL
free(head)
After Deletion process:
Pseudo-code for delete from End(after deletion)
5. Pseudo-code for insert at Kth position of the list
insert at Kth position of the list
getcell(m) //we will insert in pos=3
insert at Kth position of the list
pos = k
for(i=1; i<=pos-2; i++)
head = head->link
temp = head->link
head->link = m
m>link = temp
6. Pseudo-code for delete from Kth position of the list
Before deletion process:
delete from Kth position of the list(before)
for(i=1; i<=pos-2; i++)
head = head->link
temp = head->link
delete from Kth position of the list(before)
head->link = temp->link
free(temp)
After Deletion process:
delete from Kth position of the list(after deletion)
7. Pseudo-code for search data in list
Pseudo-code for search data in list
let key = 7
found = false
while(head->link !=Null && found == false)
{
if(head->data == key)
found = true
else
head = head->link
}
if(found == true) //search key found
else Not found
Doubly/ Two-Way Linked List
Doubly Linked List is a variation of Linked list in which navigation is possible
in both ways, either forward and backward easily as compared to Single
Linked List. Following are the important terms to understand the concept of
doubly linked list.
• Link − Each link of a linked list can store a data called an element.
• Next − Each link of a linked list contains a link to the next link called Next.
• Prev − Each link of a linked list contains a link to the previous link called Prev.
• LinkedList − A Linked List contains the connection link to the first link called
First and to the last link called Last.
Doubly Linked List Representation
As per the above illustration, following are the important points to be
considered.
• Doubly Linked List contains a link element called first and last.
• Each link carries a data field(s) and two link fields called next and prev.
• Each link is linked with its next link using its next link.
• Each link is linked with its previous link using its previous link.
• The last link carries a link as null to mark the end of the list.
Basic Operations
Following are the basic operations supported by a list.
• Insertion − Adds an element at the beginning of the list.
• Deletion − Deletes an element at the beginning of the list.
• Insert Last − Adds an element at the end of the list.
• Delete Last − Deletes an element from the end of the list.
• Insert After − Adds an element after an item of the list.
• Delete − Deletes an element from the list using the key.
• Display forward − Displays the complete list in a forward manner.
• Display backward − Displays the complete list in a backward manner.
Insertion Operation
Following code demonstrates the insertion operation at the beginning of a
doubly linked list.
Example
//insert link at the first location
void insertFirst(int key, int data) {
//create a link
struct node *link = (struct node*) malloc(sizeof(struct node));
link->key = key;
link->data = data;
if(isEmpty()) {
//make it the last link
last = link;
} else {
//update first prev link
head->prev = link;
}
//point it to old first link
link->next = head;
//point first to new first link
head = link;
}
Deletion Operation
Following code demonstrates the deletion operation at the beginning of a
doubly linked list.
Example
//delete first item
struct node* deleteFirst() {
//save reference to first link
struct node *tempLink = head;
//if only one link
if(head->next == NULL) {
last = NULL;
} else {
head->next->prev = NULL;
}
head = head->next;
//return the deleted link
return tempLink;
}
Insertion at the End of an Operation
Following code demonstrates the insertion operation at the last position of a
doubly linked list.
Example
//insert link at the last location
void insertLast(int key, int data) {
//create a link
struct node *link = (struct node*) malloc(sizeof(struct node));
link->key = key;
link->data = data;
if(isEmpty()) {
//make it the last link
last = link;
} else {
//make link a new last link
last->next = link;
//mark old last node as prev of new link
link->prev = last;
}
//point last to new last node
last = link;
}
Circular Linked List
Circular Linked List is a variation of Linked list in which the first element
points to the last element and the last element points to the first element.
Both Singly Linked List and Doubly Linked List can be made into a circular
linked list.
Singly Linked List as Circular
In singly linked list, the next pointer of the last node points to the first
node.
Doubly Linked List as Circular
In doubly linked list, the next pointer of the last node points to the first
node and the previous pointer of the first node points to the last node
making the circular in both directions.
As per the above illustration, following are the important points to be
considered.
• The last link's next points to the first link of the list in both cases of singly as
well as doubly linked list.
• The first link's previous points to the last of the list in case of doubly linked list.
Basic Operations
Following are the important operations supported by a circular list.
• insert − Inserts an element at the start of the list.
• delete − Deletes an element from the start of the list.
• display − Displays the list.
Insertion Operation
Following code demonstrates the insertion operation in a circular linked list
based on single linked list.
Example
//insert link at the first location
void insertFirst(int key, int data) {
//create a link
struct node *link = (struct node*) malloc(sizeof(struct node));
link->key = key;
link->data= data;
if (isEmpty()) {
head = link;
head->next = head;
} else {
//point it to old first node
link->next = head;
//point first to new first node
head = link;
}
}
Deletion Operation
Following code demonstrates the deletion operation in a circular linked list
based on single linked list.
//delete first item
struct node * deleteFirst() {
//save reference to first link
struct node *tempLink = head;
if(head->next == head) {
head = NULL;
return tempLink;
}
//mark next to first link as first
head = head->next;
//return the deleted link
return tempLink;
}
Display List Operation
Following code demonstrates the display list operation in a circular linked
list.
//display the list
void printList() {
struct node *ptr = head;
printf("n[ ");
//start from the beginning
if(head != NULL) {
while(ptr->next != ptr) {
printf("(%d,%d) ",ptr->key,ptr->data);
ptr = ptr->next;
}
}
printf(" ]");
}
