Linear List
Array representation
Data structures
• A data structure is a particular way of storingand manipulating data in a computer so that it can be used efficiently.
• Simple data types (storing data and manipulated by build-on operators)
• Structured data types (member variables and functions)
– Structs
– Classes
Linear Lists
• Each instance of the data structure linear list (or ordered list) is an collection of orderedelements.
• Instances of a linear list are of the form
– (e0, e1, e2, …, en-1)
– where ei denotes a list element
– n >= 0 is finite
– list size is n (the number of elements in the list)
Linear Lists
L = (e0, e1, e2, e3, …, en-1)
relationships
e0 is the zero’th (or front) element
en-1 is the last element

Linear List Operations—size()the number of elements in the list
determine list size
L = (a,b,c,d,e)
L.size() is 5
Linear List Operations—get(theIndex)get element with given index
L = (a,b,c,d,e)
L.get(0) is a
get(2) is c
get(4) is e
Check if the index is valid before get operation
(theIndex >=0 and theIndex<=listSize)
get(-1) is error
get(9) is error
Linear List Operations—indexOf(theElement)
determine the index of a given element
L = (a,b,d,b,a)indexOf(d) is 2indexOf(a) is 0indexOf(z) is -1 //element is not in the list
The index of a nonexistent element is defined to be –1. When theElement is in the list an index between 0 and size()-1 is the result. So –1 would be an invalid index and is used to represent the case when theElement is not in the list
Linear List Operations—erase(theIndex)
Remove/delete element with given index
L = (a,b,c,d,e,f,g)
erase(2) removes c
and L becomes (a,b,d,e,f,g)
index of d,e,f, and g decrease by 1
Size of the list decrease by 1
Linear List Operations—erase
Remove/delete element from the list6
L = (a,b,c,d,e,f,g)
erase(indexof(c)) removes c
and L becomes (a,b,d,e,f,g)
L.size() becomes 5
index of d,e,f, and g decrease by 1
Size of the list decrease by 1
Linear List Operations—erase(theIndex)
Remove/delete element with given index
L = (a,b,c,d,e,f,g)
Check if theIndex is valid before erase operation
erase(-1) => error
erase(20) => error
Linear List Operations—insert(theIndex, theElement)
add an element so that the new element has a specified index
L = (a,b,c,d,e,f,g)
insert(0,h) => L = (h,a,b,c,d,e,f,g)
index of a,b,c,d,e,f, and g increase by 1
Size of the list increase by 1
Linear List Operations—insert(theIndex, theElement)
L = (a,b,c,d,e,f,g)
insert(2,h) => L = (a,b,h,c,d,e,f,g)
index of c,d,e,f, and g increase by 1
Check if theIndex is valid before insert
insert(10,h) => error
insert(-6,h) => error
Abstract Data Type (ADT)
• Abstraction: separating the design details from its use of called abstraction. E.g. how the car’s engine works is abstraction, how the car’s engine is designed is implementation
• Abstract Data Type (ADT): a data type that separates the logical properties from the implementation details.
• Classes are a convenient way to implement an ADT.
Data Structure Specification
Language independent
Abstract Data TypeAbstract Data Type (ADT): a data type that separates the logical properties from the implementation details and is a model for a certain class of data structures that have similar behavior;
C++
Abstract Class is used for the class of data structures.
Linear List Abstract Data TypeAbstractDataType LinearList
{
instances
ordered finite collections of zero or more elements
operations
empty(): return true iff the list is empty, false otherwise
size(): return the list size (i.e., number of elements in the list)
get(index): return the indexth element of the list
indexO f(x): return the index of the first occurrence of x in
the list, return -1 if x is not in the list
erase(index): remove the indexth element,
elements with higher index have their index reduced by 1
insert(theIndex, x): insert x as the indexth element, elements
with theIndex >= index have their index increased by 1
output(): output the list elements from left to right
}
Linear List As C++ Abstract Class
template<class T>
class linearList
{
public:
virtual ~linearList() {};
virtual bool empty() const = 0;
virtual int size() const = 0;
virtual T& get(int theIndex) const = 0;
virtual int indexOf(const T& theElement) const = 0;
virtual void erase(int theIndex) = 0;
virtual void insert(int theIndex, const T& theElement) = 0;
virtual void output(ostream& out) const = 0;
};
cannot be instantiated.
Linear list data store
• Array
• Linked list
Extending A C++ Class
template<class T>
class arrayList : public linearList<T>
{
// code for all abstract methods of linearList must come here
}
If arrayList does not provide an implementation for all abstract methods of linearList, arrayList also is abstract and so cannot be instantiated.
use a one-dimensional array element[]
element[15] = {a,b,c,d,e};
0 1 2 3 4 5 6
Linear List Array Representation
a b c d e
L = (a, b, c, d, e)
Store element i of list in element[i].

Data Type Of Array element[]
• Data type of list elements is unknown.• To use this representation in C++, we must
know/provide a data type and length of the array element[].
• Use template type T to get a generic class that works for all data types.
• Define element[] to be of template type T.
Length of Array element[]
Don’t know how many elements will be in list.
Must pick an initial length and dynamically increase as needed.
Use variable arrayLength to store current length of array element[].
Increasing Array Length(length vs size)
What is different between size and length?
Length/size of array element[] is 6.
a b c d e f
arrayLength = 15;
T* newArray = new T[arrayLength];
First create a new and larger array
Increasing Array Length
Now copy elements from old array to new one.
a b c d e f
a b c d e f
copy(element, element + 6, newArray);
Increasing Array Length
Finally, delete old array and rename new array.delete [] element;element = newArray;arrayLength = 15;
a b c d e f
element[0]
Change Array Length
template<class T>
void changeLength1D(T*& a, int oldLength, int newLength)
{
if (newLength < 0)
{ cout << “wrong length!\n”; return -1;}
T* temp = new T[newLength]; // new array
int number = min(oldLength, newLength); // number to copy
copy(a, a + number, temp); // function copy from algorithm.h
delete [] a; // deallocate old memory
a = temp;
