C Program to Check whether a Singly Linked List is a Palindrome


Code:

#include   stdio.h
#include   stdlib.h

struct node
{
    int num;
    struct node *next;
};

int create(struct node **);
int palin_check (struct node *, int);
void release(struct node **);

int main()
{
    struct node *p = NULL;
    int result, count;

    printf("Enter data into the list\n");
    count = create(&p);
    result = palin_check(p, count);
    if (result == 1)
    {
        printf("The linked list is a palindrome.\n");
    }
    else
    {
        printf("The linked list is not a palindrome.\n");
    }
    release (&p);

    return 0;
}

int palin_check (struct node *p, int count)
{
    int i = 0, j;
    struct node *front, *rear;

    while (i != count / 2)
    {
        front = rear = p;
        for (j = 0; j < i; j++)
        {
            front = front->next;
        }
        for (j = 0; j < count - (i + 1); j++)
        {
            rear = rear->next;
        }
        if (front->num != rear->num)
        {
            return 0;
        }
        else
        {
            i++;
        }
    }

    return 1;
}

int create (struct node **head)
{
    int c, ch, count = 0;
    struct node *temp;

    do
    {
        printf("Enter number: ");
        scanf("%d", &c);
        count++;
        temp = (struct node *)malloc(sizeof(struct node));
        temp->num = c;
        temp->next = *head;
        *head = temp;
        printf("Do you wish to continue [1/0]: ");
        scanf("%d", &ch);
    }while (ch != 0);
    printf("\n");

    return count;
}

void release (struct node **head)
{
    struct node *temp = *head;

    while ((*head) != NULL)
    {
        (*head) = (*head)->next;
        free(temp);
        temp = *head;
    }
}


Output:

Enter data into the list
Enter number: 1
Do you wish to continue [1/0]: 1
Enter number: 2
Do you wish to continue [1/0]: 1
Enter number: 3 
Do you wish to continue [1/0]: 1
Enter number: 3
Do you wish to continue [1/0]: 1
Enter number: 2
Do you wish to continue [1/0]: 1
Enter number: 1
Do you wish to continue [1/0]: 0

The linked list is a palindrome.
