Write an algorithm to add two polynomials using linked list. 

Answer»

Algorithm to add two polynomials using linked list is as follows:- 

Let p and q be the two polynomials represented by the linked list. 

1. while p and q are not null, repeat step 2. 

2. If powers of the two terms ate equal then if the terms do not cancel 

then insert the sum of the terms into the sum Polynomial 

Advance p 

Advance q

Else if the power of the first polynomial> power of second

Then insert the term from first polynomial into sum polynomial

Advance p

Else insert the term from second polynomial into sum polynomial 

Advance q

3. copy the remaining terms from the non empty polynomial into the sum polynomial.

The third step of the algorithm is to be processed till the end of the polynomials has not been reached.
