Insert a Node at the Tail of a Linked List

  • kalpitshah0078 + 3 comments

    you have not covered the condition where the head is null. if you want to do this in this manner , your code should be somthing like this:

    Node* Insert(Node *head,int data) { if(head==NULL) { Node *newn=(Node *)malloc(sizeof(Node));

            newn->next=NULL;
        newn->data=data;
        head=newn;

    }
else{
     Node *newn2=(Node *)malloc(sizeof(Node));
    newn2=head;
    while(newn2->next!=NULL){
        newn2=newn2->next;
    }
    newn2->next=Insert(newn2->next , data);

}
return head;

    }

      thanks! nice one! you can reduce complexity by removing while loop there, because anyway in recursion head moves as you pass newn2->next, so no need to check the condition whether it is pointing to the extreme
