与数组一样,链表也是一种线性数据结构。与数组不同,链表元素不存储在相邻的位置;元素使用指针链接。
为什么是链表? 数组可用于存储类似类型的线性数据,但数组有以下限制。 1) 数组的大小是固定的:所以我们必须提前知道元素数量的上限。此外,通常,无论使用情况如何,分配的内存都等于上限。 2) 在元素数组中插入新元素的成本很高,因为必须为新元素创建房间,并且要创建房间,必须移动现有元素,但在链表中,如果我们有头节点,那么我们可以通过它遍历到任何节点,并在所需位置插入新节点。 例如,在一个系统中,如果我们在一个数组id[]中维护一个已排序的id列表。 id[]=[10001010105020002040]。 如果我们想插入一个新的ID 1005,那么为了保持排序顺序,我们必须将所有元素移到1000之后(不包括1000)。 除非使用某些特殊技术,否则删除数组的代价也很高。例如,要删除id[]中的1010,必须移动1010之后的所有内容,因为要做的工作太多,这会影响代码的效率。 与阵列相比的优势 1) 动态大小 2) 易于插入/删除 缺点: 1) 不允许随机访问。我们必须从第一个节点(头节点)开始依次访问元素。因此,我们无法使用链表的默认实现高效地进行二进制搜索。读一读 在这里 . 2) 列表中的每个元素都需要为指针留出额外的内存空间。 3) 不友好。由于数组元素是连续的位置,所以存在引用的位置,而在链表的情况下不存在引用的位置。 陈述: 链表由指向链表第一个节点的指针表示。第一个节点称为头部。如果链表为空,则head的值将指向NULL。 列表中的每个节点至少由两部分组成: 1) 数据(我们可以存储整数、字符串或任何类型的数据)。 2) 指向下一个节点(将一个节点连接到另一个节点)的指针(或引用) 在C语言中,我们可以使用结构来表示节点。下面是一个包含整数数据的链表节点的示例。 在Java或C#中,LinkedList可以表示为类,节点可以表示为单独的类。LinkedList类包含节点类类型的引用。

链表遍历 在上一个程序中,我们创建了一个包含三个节点的简单链表。让我们遍历创建的列表并打印每个节点的数据。对于遍历,让我们编写一个通用函数printList(),用于打印任何给定的列表。
