Chapter 5 introduces the often-used data structure of linked lists.
This presentation shows how to implement the most common operations on linked lists.

Each node in the linked list is a class, as shown here.

Each node also contains a link field which is a pointer to another node.

A program can keep track of the first node by using a pointer variable such as head_ptr in this example.
Notice that head_ptr itself is not a node -- it is a pointer to a node.

A program can keep track of the first and the last nodes by using pointer variables such as head_ptr, tail_ptr.
Notice that neither head_ptr nor tail_ptr is a node -- it is a pointer to a node.
For an empty list, null is stored in both the head and the tail pointers.

Linked List ToolkitLinked List Toolkit
Design Container Classes using Linked Lists The use of a linked list is similar to our previous
use of an array in a container class But storing and retrieving needs more work since
we do not have that handy indexing => Linked List Toolbox
using node class

The Workings of four functionsThe Workings of four functions
This lecture will show four functions: Compute the length of a linked list (code) Insert a new node at the head (code) Insert a node at any location (pseudo-code) Delete a node from the head (pseudo-code)

This lecture will show four functions: Compute the length of a linked list (code) Insert a new node at the head (code) Insert a node at any location (pseudo-code) Delete a node from the head (pseudo-code)
Read Section 5.2 for other functions in the Toolbox will be used in container classes bag and sequence

Pseudocode for Removing NodesPseudocode for Removing Nodes
Nodes often need to be removed from a linked list.
As with insertion, there is a technique for removing a node from the front of a list, and a technique for removing a node from elsewhere.
We’ll look at the pseudocode for removing a node from the head of a linked list.

Start by setting up a temporary pointer named remove_ptr to the head node.

Set up remove_ptr. head_ptr = remove_ptr->link();
remove_ptr
Draw the change that this statement will make to the linked list.

It is easy to insert a node at the front of a list. The linked list toolkit also provides a function for
inserting a new node elsewhere It is easy to remove a node at the front of a list. The linked list toolkit also provides a function for
removing a node elsewhere--you should read about this function and the other functions of the toolkit.

Key points you need to knowKey points you need to know
Linked List Toolkit uses the node class which has set and retrieve functions
The functions in the Toolkit are not member functions of the node class length, insert(2), remove(2), search, locate, copy,... compare their Big-Os with similar functions for an
array They can be used in various container classes,
such as bag, sequence, etc.
