SIMPLE PROGRAM SIDHARTH K

RA2011003010008

CSE A1
Question:
3. Write a program in C to print the element at the middle node of a Linked List.

Approach:
Pointers are used for traversing to find the middle node of the list.

Follow Up Question:
Q) What happens if the number of elements in the list is even?

A) n/2th element is found as the middle element, where “n” is the total number of elements.

Scalability:
User can enter the Size of the list and can define any value.

Code:
#include<stdio.h>

#include<stdlib.h>

//Declaring the structure

struct Node

int data;

struct Node* next;

};
//Function for finding the middle node of the list

void middle(struct Node*head)

struct Node* first=head;

struct Node* last=head;

if(head!=NULL)

while(last!=NULL && last->next!=NULL)

first=first->next;

last=last->next->next;

printf("The middle element is [%d]",first->data);

//Function to insert elements into the list

void push(struct Node **head_ref,int data)

struct Node* new_node = (struct Node*) malloc(sizeof(struct Node));

new_node->data = data;

new_node->next = (*head_ref);

(*head_ref) = new_node;

}
int main()

struct Node *head=NULL;

int i,t;

printf("Enter no. of values\n");

scanf("%d",&t);

for(i=t;i>0;i--)

int x;

printf("Enter value to be added to list\n ");

scanf("%d",&x);

push(&head,x);

middle(head);

return 0;

Sample Input and Output:


Dry Run:

Time and Space Complexity:


Time Complexity: O(N)

Space Complexity: O(1)
