Hiya,
I've got a question about linked lists:
I've got a list where if an entry has a certain field set to 0, every next
entry in the list will have that field set to 0 too. As soon as that value
is 0, I want to remove the entry from the list (so just the last few
entries) Can I just do a:
j->next = NULL;
or do you have to loop through the list and do a REMOVE_FROM_LIST for every
entry with the field set to 0? If so, would it work like this?
for (j = list; j; j = j->next) {
if (j->field == 0)
REMOVE_FROM_LIST(j, list, next);
}
I'm not quite sure what will happen to j->next->next, j->next->next->next,
etc if I just do "j->next = NULL;"... would it be a bad thing to do it like
that? Is there an easier way?
