Delete all the nodes from the list that are greater than x in C++
In this tutorial, we are going to learn how to delete all prime nodes from a singly linked list.
Let's see the steps to solve the problem.
Write struct with data and next pointer.
Write a function to insert the node into the singly linked list.
Initialize the singly linked list with dummy data.
Iterate over the singly linked list. Find whether the current node data is greater than x or not.
If the current data is greater than x, then delete the node.
Write a function to delete the node. Consider the following three cases while deleting the node.
If the node is head node, then move the head to next node.
If the node is middle node, then link the next node to the previous node
If the node is end node, then remove the previous node link.
Example
Let's see the code.
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
struct Node {
int data;
Node* next;
};
Node* getNewNode(int data) {
Node* newNode = new Node;
newNode->data = data;
newNode->next = NULL;
return newNode;
}
void deleteGreaterNodes(Node** head_ref, int x) {
Node *temp = *head_ref, *prev;
if (temp != NULL && temp->data > x) {
*head_ref = temp->next;
free(temp);
temp = *head_ref;
}
while (temp != NULL) {
while (temp != NULL && temp->data <= x) {
prev = temp;
temp = temp->next;
}
if (temp == NULL) {
return;
}
prev->next = temp->next;
delete temp;
temp = prev->next;
}
}
void printLinkedList(Node* head) {
while (head) {
cout << head->data << " -> ";
head = head->next;
}
}
int main() {
Node* head = getNewNode(1);
head->next = getNewNode(2);
head->next->next = getNewNode(3);
head->next->next->next = getNewNode(4);
head->next->next->next->next = getNewNode(5);
head->next->next->next->next->next = getNewNode(6);
int x = 3;
cout << "Linked List before deletion:" << endl;
printLinkedList(head);
deleteGreaterNodes(&head, x);
cout << "\nLinked List after deletion:" << endl;
printLinkedList(head);
return 0;
}Output
If you execute the above program, then you will get the following result.
Linked List before deletion: 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 -> 5 -> 6 -> Linked List after deletion: 1 -> 2 -> 3 ->
