what is node exactly
Linked lists- node
@Aditiverma
A node is what we call the single data element in a data structure.
When we create an array of integer.
int a[10] ;
Array a has ten nodes of type int. Since the array can be made of any type , say I were to make a structure or a class named “abc” , I could make an array of it as
abc arr[10] ;
Now the node of this array is a struct / class object of abc .
In Linked List , we have to define our own node so by general practice , we name it “node” only to simplify things. You can make it a structure or class , your choice entirely.
We make objects and pointers of node and it is the fundamental unit of our Linked List. The Linked List is just a group of nodes attached to one another.
