Implementation of linked list deletion operation:
Linked List:
A linear data structure where each element denotes a separate object is known as linked list.
- Each element of a list contains two items, the data and a pointer to next node.
- The last node would point to null.
- The “head” denotes point of entry into a linked list.
- If list is empty then the head is a null pointer.
- The structure of linked list is given below:

: Implement an algorithm to delete a node in the middle (i.e., any node butthe first and last node, not necessarily the exact middle) of a singly linked list, given only access tothat node.EXAMPLElnput:the node c from the linked list a->b->c->d->e->fResult: nothing is returned, but the new linked list looks like a ->b->d->e->f
Reverse a singly linked list by changing the pointers of the nodes. The datarepresented by the list should continue to remain in the same nodes of the originallist.For example, given a singly linked list START, as shown in Figure P6.9(a), the listneeds to be reversed, as shown in Figure P6.9(b), by manipulating the links alone.
Write a function, to be included in a sorted linked list class, called printPosition, that will receive a T parameter and print its position within the list ( position 1 if in first node, position 2 if in second…). If the item is not in the list, specify it in a printing. Consider efficiency.

- Given a circular linked list, implement an algorithm that returns the node at the beginning of the loop.DEFINITIONCircular linked list: A (corrupt) linked list in which a node's next pointer points to an earlier node, soas to make a loop in the linked list.EXAMPLEInput:Output:A -> B -> C -> D -> E -> C [the same C as earlier]Carrow_forwardBeginning with a singly linked list composed of 5 nodes, draw step-by-step the process of removing index 3 from the list.arrow_forward) Implement a self-organizing list by creating a singly linked list of nodes andundertaking frequent retrievals of data in the list repeatedly and at random.

- Suppose there are two singly linked lists both of which intersect at some point and become a single linked list. The head or start pointers of both the lists are known, but the intersecting node is unknown. Also, the number of nodes in each of the list before they intersect are unknown and both the list may have it different. List1 may have n nodes before it reaches intersection point and List2 might have m nodes before it reaches intersection point where m and n may be m = n, m > n or m < n. Give an algorithm for finding the merging point. Hints: A brute force approach would be to compare every pointer in one list with every pointer in another list. But in this case the complexity would be O(mn)arrow_forwardConsider a linked list (SLL or DLL your choice) in which, to delete anelement from the list, we simply mark that node for the deletion.Whenever the number of deleted nodes in the list exceeds the number ofnon-deleted nodes, we simply delete all nodes which were marked fordeletion. Implement the following operations for such a linked list.1. addFirst2. addLast3. delFirst4. delLast5. Delete (mark for deletion) an ith node in the list.6. display all non-deleted nodes in the list7. Size : number of non-deleted nodes in the list.8. Recall the last deleted node in the list.arrow_forward) A singly linked list contains n - 1 strings that are binary representations of numbers from the set {0, 1,.…, n – 1} where n is an exact power of 2. However, the string corresponding to one of the numbers is missing. For example, if n = 4, the list will contain any three strings from 00, 01, 10 and 11. Note that the strings in the list may not appear in any specific order. Also note that thelength of each string is lgn, hence the time to compare two strings in O(lgn). Write an algorithmthat generates the missing string in O(n).arrow_forward

What does the following code fragment do?t.next = x.next;x.next = t;arrow_forwardYou are given the head of a linked list with n nodes. For each node in the list, find the value of the next greater node. That is, for each node, find the value of the first node that is next to it and has a strictly larger value than it. Return an integer array answer where answer[i] is the value of the next greater node of the ith node (1-indexed). If the ith node does not have a next greater node, set answer[i] = 0.
