Actually, the whole efficiency thing has been studied by the IEEE and they came up with this summary that is about as close as you are likely to get without breaking the laws of physics:

Hey, I went for a walk this morning and found a nice shiny stone.

I never did say that VMS had Visual Basic. If I did. It is due to my scatter brain.
I think I've figured it out, SpectateSwamp has asbergers!
No, SpecatateSwamp does not exibit the common symtoms of Asperger syndrome (or Asperger's syndrome). He fits the pattern of Schizophrenia much better.
I am qualified to say this because I have been diagnosed with Asperger syndrome.

RE: Best Linked List Ever

I don't know which variant was Wirth's, but the standard trick is the delta-linked list:
struct node {
void *obj;
int delta;
};
Now that's just silly - we know this project is using embedded Linux, so an int should be 4 bytes, the same as a pointer. All you have saved is 4 - 4 = 0 bytes. But the code is much less obvious.Um... assuming you replied to the right post, that's an example of a doubly linked list taking up the space of a singly linked list. It's not about saving space.
What? You say two things:
a) "...that's an example of a doubly linked list taking up the space of a singly linked list."
b) " It's not about saving space."
Which one did you mean?
