There is no such thing. There are binary trees and linked lists.
No.
To convert a binary tree into a doubly linked list, perform an in-order traversal of the tree and adjust the pointers to create the doubly linked list. This involves setting the left child pointer to the previous node and the right child pointer to the next node in the list.
Linked list was introduced to reduce the space wastage done by array & also to make easier the insertion and deletion of elements from a list. A binary tree contains nodes of elements where insertion,deletion & searching is frequently done. So to make these operations easier linked list is used.
* search array => O(1) linked list=> O(n) binary tree=> O(log n) hash=>O(1) * search array => O(1) linked list=> O(n) binary tree=> O(log n) hash=>O(1)
Binary trees main advantages are in searching and sorting. Algorithms for searching binary trees (Binary search trees) worst case ie. least efficient is when all the data is in a chain with no sub trees (like a linked list).So for data stored in a binary tree, at worst it will be as effective for searching and sorting as a linked list, stack etc. At best it will be much faster.The only disadvantage I can think of is reordering the tree on removal of an element is a little more complex than in say a list or stack. But still quite easy to implement.
A tree is a linked list. Well, sort of... An ordinary linked list has one forward node pointer within each node, while a tree has more than one. Often, in a tree, there is a relationship between nodes, such as an ordering based on which sub-node pointer the current node is a child of.
You copy a singly linked list into a doubly linked list by iterating over the singly linked list and, for each element, calling the doubly linked list insert function.
It depends on what you intend to do with the data. The assumption is the data is dynamic, the number of elements are not known in advance. Binary trees are best if you want to sort the data as it is entered. Linked lists are best if you simply want a list of sequential data, or need to implement a stack or a queue.
It is easier to insert into a singly linked list.
A list is an abstract data structure, usually defined as an ordered collection of data. A linked list refers to a specific implementation of a list in which each element in the list is connected (linked) to the next element.
Overcoming the "drawbacks" of a linked list requires knowing what drawback is at stack. If you need to iterate backwards as well as forwards, then you could create a doubly linked list. If you need to search for elements quickly, then you could implement a binary tree. If you have a static size, then you could implement an array. It's all a matter of tradeoff, and of what your particular issue is... Its badsector... According to my self disadvantage of link list that searching in link list is sequential if you compare it with arrays its very slow. Because in link list we have to search every node for that. if any one uses binary tree that is in some cases more faster than arrays.
Linked list of strings, for example.
