Explanation of Solution

Redesign the addFirst() method in CircularlyLinkedList class:

Note: Refer Code Fragment 3.16 “Implementation of the CircularlyLinkedList class” in the Text book.

The CircularlyLinkedList class contains number of methods such as “size()”, “first()”, “last()”, “addFirst()”, “addLast()”, “rotate()”, and “removeFirst()”.

In addFirst() method,

  • The else part at the line number “39” and “40” in this method to avoid the use of any local variable.
    • Here, “newest” variable considered as local variable. So, the “newest” local variable is avoided in this method.
    • For this, remove the “newest” local variable from this method.
    • That is, two lines changed to single line.

The two-line code is given below:

/*Declare and assign the local variable as next node of tail as new element "e". */

Node<E> newest = new Node<>(e, tail.getNext());//Line 39

  //Pass the local variable to setNext() method by "tail"

  tail...

tests the pop_back() method of thelink list container, clears the container with the clear() function, and uses theempty() method to test if the container is empty. When using the link list, it is veryimportant to call the empty() function instead of testing if size() returns the valueof 0. Although this might sound strange, it isn’t when working with link lists. Thefunction empty() is a constant-time operation that is normally implemented as aninline function, that is, very fast use c++ to code
Define and implement a type statsList as a subtype of IntList that provides methods to return mean and variance of the data in the list. Be sure to define abstraction function and repOK (). Add required specifications wherever it is needed. Write a java code Code with comments and output screenshot. Thank you!!!
