Consider the following pseudocode of insertion in XOR list and write the approximate code snippet of it.
void xor-linked-list insert(struct node **head_ref, int value)
{
node *new_node = new (struct node);
new_node->value = value;
new_node->nodepointerxored = xor (*head_ref, NULL);
if (*head_pointer == NULL)
{
printf("invalid");
}
else
{
let b,c,d are nodes and a is to be inserted at beginning,
a address field must contain NULL xor b and b
address filed must be a xor c.
}
*head_pointer = new_node;
}
void xor-linked-list insert(struct node **head_ref, int value)
{
node *new_node = new (struct node);
new_node->value = value;
new_node->nodepointerxored = xor (*head_ref, NULL);
if (*head_pointer == NULL)
{
printf("invalid");
}
else
{
let b,c,d are nodes and a is to be inserted at beginning,
a address field must contain NULL xor b and b
address filed must be a xor c.
}
*head_pointer = new_node;
}A.
node* next = XOR ((*head_ref)->npx, NULL);
(*head_ref)->npx = XOR (new_node, next);B.
node* next = XOR ((*head_ref)->npx, NULL);
(*head_ref) = XOR (new_node, next);C.
node* next = XOR ((*head_ref)->npx, NULL);
(*head_ref)->npx->npx = XOR (new_node, next);D.
node* next = XOR ((*head_ref), NULL);
(*head_ref)->npx = XOR (new_node, next);Answer: Option A
