Unit 5 Session 1 (Click for link to problem statements)

Understand what the interviewer is asking for by using test cases and questions about the problem.

• What is the correct order of the nodes in the linked list according to the given list?
  • The nodes must be connected in the order: "aries", "taurus", "gemini", "cancer".

Plan the solution with appropriate visualizations and pseudocode.

General Idea: Sequentially link nodes representing the elements "aries", "taurus", "gemini", and "cancer" to form a linked list.

1) Create a node for each element in the given list and assign each to a variable (node_1, node_2, node_3, node_4). 2) Link each node to the next using the `next` attribute to form a sequence: - Link `node_1` (aries) to `node_2` (taurus). - Link `node_2` to `node_3` (gemini). - Link `node_3` to `node_4` (cancer).

⚠️ Common Mistakes

• Incorrectly linking nodes, which could lead to nodes being out of the intended order.
• Failing to link the last node (cancer), which would result in an incomplete list.

node_1 = Node('aries') node_2 = Node('taurus') node_3 = Node('gemini') node_4 = Node('cancer') node_1.next = node_2 node_2.next = node_3 node_3.next = node_4
