C++ || Snippet – Custom Template Linked List Sample Code

This page will consist of sample code for a singly linked list, which is loosely based on the built in C++ “List” library. Provided in the linked list class are the following functions:

From the following, the functions of interest to look out for are the “Delete, Display, Replace, InsertBefore, InsertAfter, and InsertInOrder” functions as they are typically used as programming assignments in many C++ Data structures courses to further demonstrate how linked lists operate.

===== DEMONSTRATION HOW TO USE =====

Use of the above template class is the same as its STL counterpart. Here is a sample program demonstrating its use.

Once compiled, you should get this as your output

** These are names of fruits sorted in order using the 'InsertInOrder()' function:

Apple
Orange
Plum
Tomato

There is currently 4 items in the list

** Here is the same list with the word 'Plum' deleted
using the 'Delete()' function:

Apple
Orange
Tomato

There is currently 3 items in the list

** Now the word 'Bike' will be added to the list,
right after the word 'Apple' using the 'InsertAfter()' function:

Apple
Bike
Orange
Tomato

There is currently 4 items in the list

** Now the name 'Jessica' will be added to the list,
right before the word 'Orange' using the 'InsertBefore()' function:

Apple
Bike
Jessica
Orange
Tomato

There is currently 5 items in the list

** The word 'Orange' will now be replaced with the name,
'Kat' using the 'Replace()' function:

Apple
Bike
Jessica
Kat
Tomato

There is currently 5 items in the list
