C Exercises: Insert new node at the end of a doubly linked list
C Doubly Linked List : Exercise-4 with Solution
Write a program in C to insert a new node at the end of a doubly linked list.
Pictorial Presentation:

Sample Solution:
C Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
struct node {
int num;
struct node * preptr;
struct node * nextptr;
}*stnode, *ennode;
void DlListcreation(int n);
void DlLinsertNodeAtEnd(int num);
void displayDlList(int a);
int main()
{
int n,num1,a;
stnode = NULL;
ennode = NULL;
printf("\n\n Doubly Linked List : Insert new node at the end in a doubly linked list :\n");
printf("------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n");
printf(" Input the number of nodes : ");
scanf("%d", &n);
DlListcreation(n);
a=1;
displayDlList(a);
printf(" Input data for the last node : ");
scanf("%d", &num1);
DlLinsertNodeAtEnd(num1);
a=2;
displayDlList(a);
return 0;
}
void DlListcreation(int n)
{
int i, num;
struct node *fnNode;
if(n >= 1)
{
stnode = (struct node *)malloc(sizeof(struct node));
if(stnode != NULL)
{
printf(" Input data for node 1 : "); // assigning data in the first node
scanf("%d", &num);
stnode->num = num;
stnode->preptr = NULL;
stnode->nextptr = NULL;
ennode = stnode;
for(i=2; i<=n; i++)
{
fnNode = (struct node *)malloc(sizeof(struct node));
if(fnNode != NULL)
{
printf(" Input data for node %d : ", i);
scanf("%d", &num);
fnNode->num = num;
fnNode->preptr = ennode; // new node is linking with the previous node
fnNode->nextptr = NULL;
ennode->nextptr = fnNode; // previous node is linking with the new node
ennode = fnNode; // assign new node as last node
}
else
{
printf(" Memory can not be allocated.");
break;
}
}
}
else
{
printf(" Memory can not be allocated.");
}
}
}
void DlLinsertNodeAtEnd(int num)
{
struct node * newnode;
if(ennode == NULL)
{
printf(" No data found in the list!\n");
}
else
{
newnode = (struct node *)malloc(sizeof(struct node));
newnode->num = num;
newnode->nextptr = NULL; // set next address field of new node is NULL
newnode->preptr = ennode; // previous address of new node is linking with ending node
ennode->nextptr = newnode; // next address of ending node is linking with new node
ennode = newnode; // set the new node as ending node
}
}
void displayDlList(int m)
{
struct node * tmp;
int n = 1;
if(stnode == NULL)
{
printf(" No data found in the List yet.");
}
else
{
tmp = stnode;
if (m==1)
{
printf("\n Data entered in the list are :\n");
}
else
{
printf("\n After insertion the new list are :\n");
}
while(tmp != NULL)
{
printf(" node %d : %d\n", n, tmp->num);
n++;
tmp = tmp->nextptr; // current pointer moves to the next node
}
}
}
Sample Output:
Doubly Linked List : Insert new node at the end in a doubly linked list : ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Input the number of nodes : 3 Input data for node 1 : 2 Input data for node 2 : 5 Input data for node 3 : 8 Data entered in the list are : node 1 : 2 node 2 : 5 node 3 : 8 Input data for the last node : 9 After insertion the new list are : node 1 : 2 node 2 : 5 node 3 : 8 node 4 : 9
