All Operations of Single Linked List

Here is a complete C++ program that implements all essential operations of a **Singly Linked
List**, such as:

1. Insertion at the beginning, end, or after a specific node

2. Deletion from the beginning, end, or by value

3. Searching for an element

4. Displaying the list

C++ Code

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

class Node {

public:

int data;

Node* next;

// Constructor to initialize a new node

Node(int value) {

data = value;

next = nullptr;

};

class LinkedList {

private:

Node* head;

public:

// Constructor to initialize an empty list

LinkedList() {
 head = nullptr;

// 1. Insert at the beginning

void insertAtBeginning(int value) {

Node* newNode = new Node(value);

newNode->next = head;

head = newNode;

// 2. Insert at the end

void insertAtEnd(int value) {

Node* newNode = new Node(value);

if (head == nullptr) {

head = newNode;

return;

Node* temp = head;

while (temp->next != nullptr) {

temp = temp->next;

temp->next = newNode;

// 3. Insert after a specific node value

void insertAfter(int key, int value) {

Node* temp = head;

while (temp != nullptr && temp->data != key) {

temp = temp->next;

}
 if (temp == nullptr) {

cout << "Node with value " << key << " not found.\n";

return;

Node* newNode = new Node(value);

newNode->next = temp->next;

temp->next = newNode;

// 4. Delete from the beginning

void deleteFromBeginning() {

if (head == nullptr) {

cout << "List is empty.\n";

return;

Node* temp = head;

head = head->next;

delete temp;

// 5. Delete from the end

void deleteFromEnd() {

if (head == nullptr) {

cout << "List is empty.\n";

return;

if (head->next == nullptr) {

delete head;

head = nullptr;
 return;

Node* temp = head;

while (temp->next->next != nullptr) {

temp = temp->next;

delete temp->next;

temp->next = nullptr;

// 6. Delete by value

void deleteByValue(int value) {

if (head == nullptr) {

cout << "List is empty.\n";

return;

if (head->data == value) {

Node* temp = head;

head = head->next;

delete temp;

return;

Node* temp = head;

while (temp->next != nullptr && temp->next->data != value) {

temp = temp->next;

if (temp->next == nullptr) {

cout << "Value " << value << " not found in the list.\n";
 return;

Node* toDelete = temp->next;

temp->next = temp->next->next;

delete toDelete;

// 7. Search for a value

bool search(int value) {

Node* temp = head;

while (temp != nullptr) {

if (temp->data == value) return true;

temp = temp->next;

return false;

// 8. Display the list

void display() {

if (head == nullptr) {

cout << "List is empty.\n";

return;

Node* temp = head;

while (temp != nullptr) {

cout << temp->data << " -> ";

temp = temp->next;

}
 cout << "NULL\n";

};

int main() {

LinkedList list;

list.insertAtBeginning(10);

list.insertAtEnd(20);

list.insertAtEnd(30);

list.insertAfter(20, 25);

cout << "List after insertion: ";

list.display();

list.deleteFromBeginning();

cout << "List after deleting from beginning: ";

list.display();

list.deleteFromEnd();

cout << "List after deleting from end: ";

list.display();

list.deleteByValue(25);

cout << "List after deleting value 25: ";

list.display();

if (list.search(20)) {

cout << "Element 20 found in the list.\n";

cout << "Element 20 not found in the list.\n";

return 0;

Explanation of the Code

1. **Class `Node`**:

- Represents a single node containing data and a pointer to the next node.

2. **Class `LinkedList`**:

- Manages all operations on the linked list.

3. **Insertion Methods**:

- **Beginning**: Adds a new node at the start.

- **End**: Traverses to the end and appends a new node.

- **After a given value**: Finds a node and inserts a new node after it.

4. **Deletion Methods**:

- **Beginning**: Removes the first node.

- **End**: Removes the last node.

- **By value**: Deletes a node with a specific value.

5. **Search Method**:

- Looks for an element in the list.

6. **Display Method**:

- Prints all elements in the list.

7. **Main Function**:

- Demonstrates the use of all operations.

List after insertion: 10 -> 20 -> 25 -> 30 -> NULL

List after deleting from beginning: 20 -> 25 -> 30 -> NULL

List after deleting from end: 20 -> 25 -> NULL

List after deleting value 25: 20 -> NULL

Element 20 found in the list.
