data Keyword 2

doubly linked list

Definition

A doubly linked list a a method of storing data.
The manner in which the data is stored is by a series of structs. There will be a variable that will always point to the first struct, and if you want there can be one to always point to the last struct.
Every struct has a minimum of three variables contained within - the data value, a pointer to the struct after it, and a pointer to the struct before it. These pointers is how one will navigate these structs, it is how they are linked together.

linked list

Definition

A linked list is a data structure consisting of a group of nodes which together represent a sequence. Under the simplest form, each node is composed of data and a link to the next node in the sequence; more complex variants add additional links. This structure allows for efficient insertion or removal of elements from any position in the sequence.

Plenty of linked list demos in my repo.

  5 void FillList(Node **start)
  6 {
  7     char input;
  8     Node *tmp;
  9     tmp=(*start);
 10     tmp == NULL;
 11     printf("Enter a value (-1 to end): ");
 12     scanf("%hhd", &input);
 13 
 14     while(input != -1)
 15     {
 16         if (tmp == NULL)
 17         {
 18             tmp=(Node*)malloc(sizeof(Node));
 19             tmp->value=input;
 20             tmp->next=NULL;
 21             tmp->prev=NULL;
 22             *start=tmp;
 23         }
 24         else
 25         {
 26             tmp->next=(Node*)malloc(sizeof(Node));
 27             tmp->next->value=input;
 28             tmp->next->next=NULL;
 29             tmp->next->prev=tmp;
 30             tmp=tmp->next;
 31         }
 32         printf("Enter a value (-1 to end): ");
 33         scanf("%hhd", &input);
 34     }
 35 }

This is a function that creates a linked list.
