Explanation of Solution

Appending a node:

It is the process of adding a new node at the end of a linked list.

Member function for appending a node:

The following member function is used to append the received value into a list at end:

//Definition of appendNode() function

void IntList::appendNode(int num)

{

//Declare a structure pointer variables

ListNode *newNode, *dataPtr = nullptr;

//Assign a new node

newNode = new ListNode;

//Store the argument value into "newNode"

newNode->value = num;

//Assign the next pointer to be "NULL"

newNode->next = nullptr;

//Condition to check whether the list is empty or not 

if (!head)

//If true, make newNode as the first node

head = newNode;

//else part

else 

{

//Store head value into dataPtr

dataPtr = head;

//Loop to find the last node in the list

while (dataPtr->next)

//Assign last node to the structure variable

dataPtr = dataPtr->next;

//Insert newNode as the last node

dataPtr->next = newNode;

}

}

Explanation:

Consider the function named “appendNode()” to insert the received value “num” at end of the list.

  • Make a new node and assign a received value “num” into the node.
  • Using “if…else” condition check whether the list is empty or not.
    • If the “head” node is empty, assign a new node into “head” pointer.
    • Otherwise, make a loop to find a last node in the list and insert the value at end of the list.

Inserting a node:

It is the process of adding a new node at a specific location in a list.

Member function for inserting a node:

The following member function is used to insert the received value into a list at specific location:

//Definition of insertNode() function

void IntList::insertNode(int num)

{

/*Declare a structure pointer variables*/

ListNode *newNode, *dataPtr, *prev = nullptr;

//Assign a new node

newNode = new ListNode;

//Store the argument value into "newNode"

newNode->value ...

Question 1 - Array Iterators Like the JS on A2, there is no visual component to this question. The HTML really just needs to load the JavaScript, everything else will output to the console. The JS file should the completion of the task, and all necessary testing, so that just loading the file will complete the task with enough different inputs to ensure it works. Even Numbers [3 marks] Create a function that determines if a provided number is even. Define an array of numbers, then on the array use the appropriate array iterator to determine if the array contains only even numbers using the function you defined. Output the results, and test with several arrays. Long Names [3 marks] Define an array of names. Use an iterator to retrieve a new array containing only the names longer then 12 characters. Your iterator should be passed an anonymous arrow function. Test with several different arrays First Names [3 marks] Define an array called fullNames that contains 7 javascript objects of…
