time out search element in linked list c++
To implement a timeout search for an element in a linked list in C++, you can follow these steps:
- Create a class for the linked list node with the data and a pointer to the next node.
- Create a class for the linked list with methods to add elements, search for elements, and implement the timeout functionality.
- Implement the timeout functionality using a timer and a flag to indicate whether the search has timed out.
- When searching for an element, start the timer and set the flag.
- If the element is found before the timeout, stop the timer and clear the flag.
- If the timeout occurs before the element is found, stop the timer and handle the timeout event.
These steps will help you implement a timeout search for an element in a linked list in C++.
