An Implementation of a Singly Linked List of Integers

Introduction

An array is a very useful data structure provided in various programming languages. However, it has two limitations: (i) its size has to be known at compilation time, and (ii) the data in the array are separated in computer memory by the same distance. This means that when you want to insert data into the array you have to shift all the data in the array. These limitations can be overcome by using linked structures . A linked structure is a collection of nodes storing information, and the location of other nodes. Nodes can be located anywhere in memory, and passing from one node to another can be done by storing the addresses of other nodes in the linked structure. The most flexible implementation is the use of pointers.

If a node contains a data member that is a pointer to another node, then many nodes can be strung together using only one variable to access the entire chain of nodes. Such a chain of nodes is the most frequently used implementation of a linked list . A linked list is a data structure composed of nodes, each node holding information, and a pointer to another node in the list. If a node only has the address to its successor in the chain, the list is called a singly linked list .
