    C - Removing Lists or parts

    We need help with a code. We need to be able to remove the entire list or just a part of the list. We need this ASAP so please respond with a good reply. Thanks

    A list? I'll assume you're using a linked list, since you've posted no code.

    void removeList( Node *listStart )
    { if ( listStart ) { removeList( listStart->next ); free( listStart ); }

    For removing a single node, it's just a matter of making sure the pointers are correct, then freeing up that space:

    prevNode->next = currentNode->next;
    free( currentNode );

    Let me again state how much I hate the timer on your signin/signout on this board...

    Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
