What is the purpose of the isEmpty() function in the SLinkedList class?

To check if the linked list is empty

In the insertAtEnd() function, what is the purpose of the while loop that traverses the linked list?

To find the last node in the linked list

What is the purpose of the SLinkedList(int x) constructor in the SLinkedList class?

To create a new linked list with a single node containing the value x

What is the purpose of the display() function in the SLinkedList class?

To print the contents of the linked list

In the insertAtEnd() function, what happens if the linked list is empty?

The head and tail pointers are set to the new node

What is the purpose of the next pointer in the Node class?

To point to the next node in the linked list

What is the purpose of the insert() function call in the code snippet?

To insert a new node at index 3 of the linked list

What is the total number of nodes in the final linked list after the insert() function call?

6

What is the purpose of the display() function call in the code snippet?

To display all the nodes in the linked list

What is the key difference between a singly linked list and a doubly linked list?

Singly linked lists can only be traversed in one direction, while doubly linked lists can be traversed in both directions.

Which of the following operations is more efficient in a doubly linked list compared to a singly linked list?

Traversing the list in reverse order

What is the purpose of the LinkedList l(A, 5) statement in the code snippet?

To create a new linked list with the values 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5

In the given code snippet, what is the purpose of the function 'deletes'?

To delete a node from a Singly Linked List at a given index

What does the variable 'x = -1' indicate in the 'deletes' function?

Unsuccessful deletion of the node

What is the significance of 'index < 1 || index > length()' in the 'deletes' function?

Checking if the index is within a valid range

What operation is performed when 'index == 1' in the 'deletes' function?

Deleting the first node of the linked list

What is the role of 'q' in the 'deletes' function when 'index != 1'?

To store the previous node before deletion

What happens if 'index' exceeds the total length of the linked list in the 'deletes' function?

The last node gets deleted

This quiz covers common operations on a Singly Linked List in C++, with a focus on basic structure, initialization, and memory deallocation. The quiz includes a complete program example with operations like adding a node, deleting a node, and traversing the linked list.
