C++ Programming

Topics: Recursive Structs, Pointers and Memory Management in C.

For this assignment, you will write a multi-file C program to define, implement and use a dynamic linked lists. Please refer to Lab 04 for the definition of a basic linked list.

In this assignment you will need to use the basic ideas of a node and of a linked list of nodes to implement a suit of functions which can be used to create and maintain two specific kinds of lists (of node s) - as well as other hybrid lists:

1. A list where all adds and removes occur at the start of the list (a Stack)
2. A list where all adds occur at the end of the list, and removes the start of the list (a Queue)

Requirements:

• You must write lists.c - given the following lists.h (which can not be modified):

// a recursive data type definition

// serves as the nodes of a list

typedef struct node

{

int id;

char* name;

struct node* next;

} node;

// a new list is created by: node* head = NULL;

// add a new node to the front of the list

void add_front(node* *head, node* new_node);

// add a new node to the end of the list

void add_end(node* *head, node* new_node);

// remove and return the node at the front of the list or NULL if empty

node* rem_front(node* *head);

// remove and return the node at the end of the list or NULL if empty

node* rem_end(node* *head);

// return the number of nodes in the list

int list_len(const node* head);

// print the data values of all the nodes in the list (from start to end)

void print_list(const node* head);

// free the entire list and set *head = NULL

void free_list(node* *head);

• You must write main.c which tests your list implementations completely
