Answer / rashid akhtar

We cant sort a singly list list in O(n) that is sure.
We can sort an array in O(k+n) if k is order of n,otherwise
counting sort is also not of O(n).
So moral of story,nobody can sort a singly list in O(n)...

Answer / hakr

Using Radix sort its the best solution it takes O(n).

typedef struct node *ptr;
struct node{
int element;
ptr next;
};
typedef ptr LIST;
typedef ptr POSITION;
int main()
{
.
.
.
.

for(i=0;i<10;i++)
{
p=A[i]->next;
while(A[i]->next!=NULL)
{
A[i]->next=p->next;
p->next=NULL;
digit=(p->element/pow(10,j))%10;
InsertLast(B[digit],p);//InsertLast is a function that
takes an int and position and then does as the name tells//
p=A[i]->next;
}
.
.
.
.
}

In a gymnastic competition, scoring is based on the average of all scores given by the judges excluding the maximum and minimum scores. Let the user input the number of judges, after that, input the scores from the judges. Output the average score. Note: In case, more than two judges give the same score and it happens that score is the maximum or minimum then just eliminate two scores. For example, if the number of judges is 5 and all of them give 10 points each. Then the maximum and minimum score is 10. So the computation would be 10+10+10, this time. The output should be 10 because 30/3 is 10.
