C Exercises: Insert a node at the end of a circular linked list
C Doubly Linked List : Exercise-14 with Solution
Write a program in C to insert a node at the end of a circular linked list.
Pictorial Presentation:

Sample Solution:
C Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
struct node {
int num;
struct node * nextptr;
}*stnode;
struct node *tail,*p,*q,*store;
void ClListcreation(int n);
void ClLinsertNodeAtEnd(int num);
void displayClList(int a);
int main()
{
int n,num1,a,insPlc;
stnode = NULL;
printf("\n\n Circular Linked List : Insert a node at the end of a circular linked list :\n");
printf("--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n");
printf(" Input the number of nodes : ");
scanf("%d", &n);
ClListcreation(n);
a=1;
displayClList(a);
printf(" Input the data to be inserted : ");
scanf("%d", &num1);
ClLinsertNodeAtEnd(num1);
a=2;
displayClList(a);
return 0;
}
void ClListcreation(int n)
{
int i, num;
struct node *preptr, *newnode;
if(n >= 1)
{
stnode = (struct node *)malloc(sizeof(struct node));
printf(" Input data for node 1 : ");
scanf("%d", &num);
stnode->num = num;
stnode->nextptr = NULL;
preptr = stnode;
for(i=2; i<=n; i++)
{
newnode = (struct node *)malloc(sizeof(struct node));
printf(" Input data for node %d : ", i);
scanf("%d", &num);
newnode->num = num;
newnode->nextptr = NULL; // next address of new node set as NULL
preptr->nextptr = newnode; // previous node is linking with new node
preptr = newnode; // previous node is advanced
}
preptr->nextptr = stnode; //last node is linking with first node
}
}
void ClLinsertNodeAtEnd(int num1)
{
int a;
a=num1;
struct node *temp=(struct node*)malloc(sizeof(struct node));
temp->num=a;
p=stnode;
while(p->nextptr!=stnode)
{
p=p->nextptr;
}
p->nextptr=temp;
temp->nextptr=stnode;
}
void displayClList(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");
}
do {
printf(" Data %d = %d\n", n, tmp->num);
tmp = tmp->nextptr;
n++;
}while(tmp != stnode);
}
}
Sample Output:
Circular Linked List : Insert a node at the end of a circular 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 : Data 1 = 2 Data 2 = 5 Data 3 = 8 Input the data to be inserted : 9 After insertion the new list are : Data 1 = 2 Data 2 = 5 Data 3 = 8 Data 4 = 9
