Circular Linked List Program in C
Implementation
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.
C Implementation
The C Code to demonstrate the circular linked list operations is given below −
#include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdbool.h> struct node { int data; int key; struct node *next; }; struct node *head = NULL; struct node *current = NULL; bool isEmpty(){ return head == NULL; } int length(){ int length = 0; //if list is empty if(head == NULL) { return 0; } current = head->next; while(current != head) { length++; current = current->next; } return length; } //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; } } //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 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(" ]"); } int main(){ insertFirst(1,10); insertFirst(2,20); insertFirst(3,30); insertFirst(4,1); insertFirst(5,40); insertFirst(6,56); printf("Original List: "); //print list printList(); while(!isEmpty()) { struct node *temp = deleteFirst(); printf("\nDeleted value:"); printf("(%d,%d) ",temp->key,temp->data); } printf("\nList after deleting all items: "); printList(); }
Output
Original List: [ (6,56) (5,40) (4,1) (3,30) (2,20) ] Deleted value:(6,56) Deleted value:(5,40) Deleted value:(4,1) Deleted value:(3,30) Deleted value:(2,20) Deleted value:(1,10) List after deleting all items: [ ]
