数据结构-链表

链表是一种物理存储单元上非连续、非顺序的存储结构，数据元素的逻辑顺序是通过链表中的指针链接次序实现的。链表由一系列结点（链表中每一个元素称为结点）组成，结点可以在运行时动态生成。每个结点包括两个部分：一个是存储数据元素的数据域，另一个是存储下一个结点地址的指针域。 相比于线性表顺序结构，操作复杂。由于不必须按顺序存储，链表在插入的时候可以达到O(1)的复杂度，比另一种线性表顺序表快得多，但是查找一个节点或者访问特定编号的节点则需要O(n)的时间，而线性表和顺序表相应的时间复杂度分别是O(logn)和O(1)。

 下面单独拿出insertElement函数

void insertElement(NodePtr paraHeader, char paraChar, int paraPosition) {

	if (paraPosition < 0) {
		printf("索引越界,插入下标不能小于0");
		return;
	}
	NodePtr p, q;

	// Step 1. Search to the position.
	p = paraHeader;
	for (int i = 0; i < paraPosition; i++) {
		p = p->next;
		if (p == NULL) {
			printf("The position %d is beyond the scope of the list.", paraPosition);
			return;
		}// Of if
	} // Of for i

	// Step 2. Construct a new node.
	q = (NodePtr)malloc(sizeof(LNode));
	if (q == NULL) {
		printf("空间分配失败");
		return;
	}
	q->data = paraChar;

	// Step 3. Now link.
	printf("linking\r\n");
	q->next = p->next;
	p->next = q;
}// Of insertElement

此函数为指定位置插入节点

对插入位置先进行简单判断，若小于0只会插入头结点后；
