If you have a double-linked list and you remove the last item in the list, how many pointers are updated (not including the temp pointer to the element)?

2

Remove singly-linked list head node (special case):

> If curNode is null, the algorithm points sucNode to the head node's next node, and points the list's head pointer to sucNode. > If sucNode is null, the only list node was removed, so the list's tail pointer is pointed to null (indicating the list is now empty).

Remove node after curNode in singly-linked list:

> If curNode's next pointer is not null (a node after curNode exists), the algorithm points sucNode to the node after curNode's next node. > Then curNode's next pointer is pointed to sucNode. If sucNode is null, the list's tail node was removed, so the algorithm points the list's tail pointer to curNode (the new tail node).

LinkedList vs. ArrayList

> LinkedList and ArrayList are ADTs implementing the List interface. > Although both LinkedList and ArrayList implement a List, a programmer should select the implementation that is appropriate for the intended task. > A LinkedList typically provides faster element insertion and removal at the list's ends (and middle if using ListIterator), whereas an ArrayList offers faster positional access with indices.

A common approach for implementing a linked list is using two data structures:

> List data structure > List node data structure

List

> interface defined within the Java Collections Framework defines a Collection of ordered elements, i.e., a sequence. > The List interface supports methods for adding, modifying, and removing elements.

List data structure

A list data structure, called a header node, is a data structure containing the list's head and tail, and may also include additional information such as the list's size

Which of the following operations are more efficient when using a linked list than with an array list?

Add item to beginning of list (prepend). Insert item into middle of list.

Which operations below are standard operations you might want to perform with a list collection? Assume the list is not sorted

Add to front Remove from back Peek at front Remove (element) Peek at back Add after (element) Remove from front Add to back

LinkedList.add(index, newElement)

Adds newElement to the List at the specified index. Indices of the elements previously at that specified index and higher are increased by one. List's size is increased by one.

LinkedList.add(newElement)

Adds newElement to the end of the List. List's size is increased by one.

ListIterator.add(newElement)

Adds the newElement between the next and previous elements and moves the ListIterator after newElement.

Imagine you want to keep a list of customer leads for your business. You want them sorted by most recent contact date, which is a property in the CustomerLead class. You are adding new customer leads every day. You also need to remove customer leads when it becomes apparent that the customer is not interested in your product. You want to be able to move customers to one end of the list when you recontact them. You want to be able to do a lot at the other end of the list where there are customers that haven't been contacted recently. What type of list should you use?

Doubly-linked list, sorted

node

Each item in a list ADT

A linked list must have a header node

False > A header node is optional. A programmer can alternatively use variables to maintain a list's head and tail, or size. Header nodes are a convenient structure for managing a list's head and tail.

Remove operation, Removing list's head node:

If curNode points to the list's head node, the algorithm points the list's head pointer to the successor node

Remove operation, Removing list's tail node:

If curNode points to the list's tail node, the algorithm points the list's tail pointer to the predecessor node

Insert in middle of doubly-linked list:

If the list's head pointer is not null (list is not empty) and curNode does not point to the list's tail node, the algorithm updates the current, new, and successor nodes' next and previous pointers to achieve the ordering {curNode newNode sucNode}, which requires four pointer updates: point the new node's next pointer to sucNode, point the new node's previous pointer to curNode, point curNode's next pointer to the new node, and point sucNode's previous pointer to the new node.

Insert after doubly-linked list tail node:

If the list's head pointer is not null (list is not empty) and curNode points to the list's tail node, the new node is inserted after the tail node. The algorithm points the tail node's next pointer to the new node, points the new node's previous pointer to the list's tail node, and then points the list's tail pointer to the new node.

Insert in middle of singly-linked list:

If the list's head pointer is not null (list not empty) and curNode does not point to the list's tail node, the algorithm points the new node's next pointer to curNode's next node, and then points curNode's next pointer to the new node.

Insert after singly-linked list tail node:

If the list's head pointer is not null (list not empty) and curNode points to the list's tail node, the algorithm points the tail node's next pointer and the list's tail pointer to the new node.

Prepend to non-empty singly-linked list:

If the list's head pointer is not null (not empty), the algorithm points the new node's next pointer to the head node, and then points the list's head pointer to the new node.

Prepend to non-empty doubly-linked list:

If the list's head pointer is not null (not empty), the algorithm points the new node's next pointer to the list's head node, points the list head node's previous pointer to the new node, and then points the list's head pointer to the new node

Append to non-empty singly-linked list:

If the list's head pointer is not null (not empty), the algorithm points the tail node's next pointer and the list's tail pointer to the new node

Append to non-empty doubly-linked list:

If the list's head pointer is not null (not empty), the algorithm points the tail node's pointer to the new node, points the new node's previous pointer to the list's tail node, and points the list's tail pointer to the new node.

Append to empty singly-linked list:

If the list's head pointer is null (empty), the algorithm points the list's head and tail pointers to the new nod

Prepend to empty doubly-linked list:

If the list's head pointer is null (empty), the algorithm points the list's head and tail pointers to the new node

Append to empty doubly-linked list:

If the list's head pointer is null (empty), the algorithm points the list's head and tail pointers to the new node.

Prepend to empty singly-linked list:

If the list's head pointer is null (empty), the algorithm points the list's head and tail pointers to the new node.

Insert as first node in doubly-linked list:

If the list's head pointer is null (list is empty), the algorithm points the list's head and tail pointers to the new node.

Insert as singly-linked list first node:

If the list's head pointer is null, the algorithm points the list's head and tail pointers to the new node.

Remove operation, Predecessor exists:

If the predecessor node pointer is not null (predecessor exists), the algorithm points the predecessor's next pointer to the successor node

Remove operation, Successor exists:

If the successor node pointer is not null (successor exists), the algorithm points the successor's previous pointer to the predecessor node

InsertAfter(list, w, x)

Inserts x after w

Append(list, x)

Inserts x at end of list

Prepend(list, x)

Inserts x at start of list

Imagine you want to keep a list of donors for a fundraising event and you want to be able to group donors by the amounts they have donated for various purposes. You are adding new donors all the time. What type of list should you use?

Singly-Linked, Sorted List

Sort(list)

Sorts the lists items in ascending order

List node data structure

The list node data structure maintains the data for each list element, including the element's data and pointers to the other list element

A header node can have additional information besides the head and tail pointers.

True > A list header commonly stores the list size and other data associated with the list itself and not the list nodes.

A linked list has O(n) space complexity, whether a header node is used or not.

True > If a header node is used, O(1) space is needed for the single header node. O(n) + O(1) = O(n).

What differentiates lists from queues?

You can add and retrieve items from the middle.

list

a common ADT for holding ordered data, having operations like append a data item, remove a data item, search whether a data item exists, and print the list

header node

a data structure containing the list's head and tail, and may also include additional information such as the list's size

singly-linked list

a data structure for implementing a list ADT, where each node has data and a pointer to the next node

doubly-linked list

a data structure for implementing a list ADT, where each node has data, a pointer to the next node, and a pointer to the previous node > first node is called the head, and the last node the tail > typically points to the first node and the last node

abstract data type

a data type described by pre-defined user operations, such as "insert data at rear," without indicating how each operation is implemented

LinkedList

an ADT implemented as a generic class that supports different types of elements

ListIterator

an object that points to a location in a List and provides methods to access an element and advance the ListIterator to the next position in the list

Assume you are adding an item 'F' to the end of this list. You have created a new linear node called temp that contains a pointer to 'F'. What lines of code appropriately update the list?

back.setNext(temp); back = temp; numNodes++;

What scenarios should be considered 'special or edge cases' when creating a method to add a node to a sorted Linked List? Hint: special cases with lists usually involve changing the head/tail references.

the list is empty the node needs to go at the front of the list the node needs to go at the end of the list

visits all nodes in the list once and performs an operation on each node

reverse traversal algorithm:

visits all nodes starting with the list's tail node and ending after visiting the list's head node > only supported by doubly-linked list

data structure

way of organizing data, commonly used to implement an abstract data type (ADT), and often involving arrays or pointers

to interact with a LinkedList by index ___

you have to iterate through each reference from 0 to the index, since the next reference needs to be checked to find the next item in the LinkedList
