Code Implementation of Double Circular Link list
1 Construction
1.1 Construct the link list
typedef struct line{
struct line * prior;
int data;
struct line * next;
}line;
Double circular link list can be considered as an improvement of double link list in some cases. The only difference is that the list has a double-end-to-end connection.
1.2 Initialization
line* initLine(line * head){
head=(line*)malloc(sizeof(line));
head->prior=NULL;
head->next=NULL;
head->data=1;
line * list=head;
for (int i=2; i<=3; i++) {
line * body=(line*)malloc(sizeof(line));
body->prior=NULL;
body->next=NULL;
body->data=i;
list->next=body;
body->prior=list;
list=list->next;
}
// Bipolarly connect the head and tail
list->next=head;
head->prior=list;
return head;
}
1.3 Check the code
void display(line * head){
line * temp=head;
while (temp->next!=head) { // If point to 'head' means to the last node of the list
if (temp->next==NULL) {
printf("%d\n",temp->data);
}else{
printf("%d->",temp->data);
}
temp=temp->next;
}
printf("%d",temp->data);
}
int main() {
line * head=NULL;
head=initLine(head);
display(head);
return 0;
}
Output:
2 Russian Roulette
Rules of the game: n participants will form a ring, Loaded a bullet to revolver each time, and randomly turn around the wheel. Started from the first person, participants take turns to take the gun. The person who gets shot quits the game, and the next person starts the next round as the first person. The last person will be the winner.
Requirements: simulation roulette game rules, find the final winner of the game. By using chain storage structure we can solve the problem.
Complete code with C:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
typedef struct line{
int No;
struct line * next;
}line;
// Initialize the circular link list according to the total number of people
void initLine(line ** head, int n){
*head=(line*)malloc(sizeof(line));
(*head)->next=NULL;
(*head)->No=1;
line * list=*head;
for (int i=1;i<n;i++){
line * body=(line*)malloc(sizeof(line));
body->next=NULL;
body->No=i+1;
list->next=body;
list=list->next;
}
list->next=*head; // Become a loop
}
void display(line * head){
line * temp=head;
while (temp->next!=head) {
printf("%d ",temp->No);
temp=temp->next;
}
printf("%d\n",temp->No);
}
int main() {
line * head=NULL;
srand((int)time(0));
int n,shootNum,round=1;
printf("The total number of person:");
scanf("%d",&n);
initLine(&head,n);
line* lineNext=head; // Note the start position of every loop
while (head->next!=head) { // When only one node left(The head node), break the loop
printf("Round %d start,from person %d ,",round,lineNext->No);
shootNum=rand()%n+1;
printf("The gunshot will be at number %d \n",shootNum);
line *temp=lineNext;
// Find the last node of the deleted node
for (int i=1; i<shootNum-1; i++) {
temp=temp->next;
}
// Delete the node
printf("No. %d out, the remain persons are:\n",temp->next->No);
line * del=temp->next;
temp->next=temp->next->next;
if (del==head) {
head=head->next;
}
free(del);
display(head);
lineNext=temp->next; // The place where the new loop start
round++;
}
printf("The final succeed person is:%d\n",head->No);
return 0;
}
Output:
We assumed that there are 6 participants and we randomly put the bullet into the gun.
