C++ Linked List Exercises: Create and display a doubly linked list

C++ Linked List: Exercise-15 with Solution

Write a C++ program to create and display a doubly linked list.

Test Data:
Doubly linked list is as follows:
Traversal in Forward direction:
Orange White Green Red
Traversal in Reverse direction:
Red Green White Orange

Sample Solution:

C++ Code:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;
  
// A doubly linked list node
struct Node {
   string data;
   struct Node* next;
   struct Node* prev;
};
  
//Append node at the front of the list
void append_data(Node** head, string new_data)
{
   //Create a new node and allocate memory.
   struct Node* newNode = new Node;
  
   //assign data to new node
   newNode->data = new_data;
  
   // A new node has been added with the name head and the previous node 
   // set to null, since it is being added at the front.
   newNode->next = (*head);
   newNode->prev = NULL;
  
   //previous head is new node
   if ((*head) != NULL)
   (*head)->prev = newNode;
  
   //head points to new node
   (*head) = newNode;
}

// Following function display contents of the doubly linked list
void displayDlList(Node* head)
{
    Node* last_node;
    cout << "\n\nTraversal in Forward direction:\n";
    while (head != NULL) {
        cout << " " << head->data << " ";
        last_node = head;
        head = head->next;
    }
    cout << "\n\nTraversal in Reverse direction:\n";
    while (last_node != NULL) {
        cout << " " << last_node->data << " ";
        last_node = last_node->prev;
    }
}
  
//main program
int main() {
   /* Start with the empty list */
   struct Node* head = NULL;
   append_data(&head, "Red");
   append_data(&head, "Green");
   append_data(&head, "White");
   append_data(&head, "Orange");  
   cout<<"Doubly linked list is as follows: ";
   displayDlList(head);
   return 0;
}

Sample Output:

Doubly linked list is as follows:

Traversal in Forward direction:
 Orange  White  Green  Red

Traversal in Reverse direction:
 Red  Green  White  Orange

C++ Programming: Tips of the Day

In C++, if throw is an expression, what is its type?

According to the standard, 5.16 paragraph 2 first point, "The second or the third operand (but not both) is a throw-expression (15.1); the result is of the type of the other and is an rvalue." Therefore, the conditional operator doesn't care what type a throw-expression is, but will just use the other type.

In fact, 15.1, paragraph 1 says explicitly "A throw-expression is of type void."
