Question

Give a pseudo-code for a recursive node delete in the SLList::recDelete(int key), where key is the integer value of the node to be deleted. Here is a simple .h file for the SLList for to use:

class SLLNode( public: SLLNode () [ next 0 ; SLLNode (int el, LLNode *ptr - data = el; next = ptr; int data; SLLNode *next; class SLList public: SLList) head = tail = 0 SLList (); int isEmpty (); void addToHead (int); void addToTail(int); int deleteFromHead (); int deleteFromTail (); //delete n de with data = int void deleteNode (int) ; void printAll () const void shuffleList(); private SLLNode *head, *tail;

Explanation / Answer

// C program to remove alternate nodes of a linked list

#include<stdio.h>

#include<stdlib.h>

/* A linked list node */

struct node

{

    int data;

    struct node *next;

};

/* deletes alternate nodes of a list starting with head */

void deleteAlt(struct node *head)

{

    if (head == NULL)

        return;

    /* Initialize prev and node to be deleted */

    struct node *prev = head;

    struct node *node = head->next;

    while (prev != NULL && node != NULL)

    {

        /* Change next link of previous node */

        prev->next = node->next;

        /* Free memory */

        free(node);

        /* Update prev and node */

        prev = prev->next;

        if (prev != NULL)

            node = prev->next;

    }

}

/* UTILITY FUNCTIONS TO TEST fun1() and fun2() */

/* Given a reference (pointer to pointer) to the head

  of a list and an int, push a new node on the front

  of the list. */

void push(struct node** head_ref, int new_data)

{

    /* allocate node */

    struct node* new_node =

        (struct node*) malloc(sizeof(struct node));

    /* put in the data */

    new_node->data = new_data;

    /* link the old list off the new node */

    new_node->next = (*head_ref);

    /* move the head to point to the new node */

    (*head_ref)    = new_node;

}

/* Function to print nodes in a given linked list */

void printList(struct node *node)

{

    while (node != NULL)

    {

        printf("%d ", node->data);

        node = node->next;

    }

}

/* Drier program to test above functions */

int main()

{

    /* Start with the empty list */

    struct node* head = NULL;

    /* Using push() to construct below list

      1->2->3->4->5 */

    push(&head, 5);

    push(&head, 4);

    push(&head, 3);

    push(&head, 2);

    push(&head, 1);

    printf(" List before calling deleteAlt() ");

    printList(head);

    deleteAlt(head);

    printf(" List after calling deleteAlt() ");

    printList(head);

    return 0;

}

Method 2 (Recursive)
Recursive code uses the same approach as method 1. The recursive coed is simple and short, but causes O(n) recursive function calls for a linked list of size n.

/* deletes alternate nodes of a list starting with head */

void deleteAlt(struct node *head)

{

    if (head == NULL)

        return;

    struct node *node = head->next;

    if (node == NULL)

        return;

    /* Change the next link of head */

    head->next = node->next;

    /* free memory allocated for node */

    free(node);

    /* Recursively call for the new next of head */

    deleteAlt(head->next);

}

// C program to remove alternate nodes of a linked list

#include<stdio.h>

void deleteAlt(struct node *head)

{
