Chapter 19, Problem 1FTE

Explanation of Solution

Purpose of the given code:

The given code is used to display the second element in a list “myList”. This list contains three elements.

Given code:

/* Set a reference "ref" to the first node in the list "myList" */

Node ref = myList; //Line 1

/* Increment the value of "ref" */

ref++;//Line 2

/* Display the element in the "ref" */

System.out.print(ref.value); //Line 3

Error in the given code:

  • The error is present in “line 2” of given code. If user needs move on to the next node, then they should set a reference to the successor of the existing node. That is assign “ref” to “ref.next”.
  • Therefore, user should replace “ref = ref.next” in the place of “ref++”...

1, Build a C++ program based on the appropriate method/function. You are free to create your own menu and display. Consider the following case: You have been appointed as a teacher of 3 Gemilang class in SMK Tanjung Malim. Please create a program that can keep the name list of your students in the class. The list must consist of two lists, first list is for all female student's names and the second list is for all male student's names. You must also provide the list of all the student's name. In order to do that, you need to merge both of the list together. The name in the list needs to be sorted alphabetically. The program must consist of the following method function: a) menu() – as interface for the user b) add_list(string) – to add name to the list c) sort_list() – to sort the name in the list d) show_list() – to display the lists e) search_list(string) – to search a name in the list f) merge_list(list1, list2) – to display list of students name (merge list) g) delete_list() – to…
struct nodeType {    int infoData;    nodeType * next; };   nodeType *first;   … and containing the values(see image) Using a loop to reach the end of the list, write a code segment that deletes all the nodes in the list. Ensure the code performs all memory ‘cleanup’ functions.
Multiple choice in data structures void doo(node<int>*root){ if(root !=0) { node<int>*p=root; while(root->next!=0) root=root->next; p->data=root->data; } What is this code do? a. swap the first item with the last item in the linked list b. set the first item in the linked list as the last item c. doesn't do anything because the root parameter is passed by value d. change the root item in the binary tree with the farthest leaf item
