Let's pit the linked list against the array. We all learn how to create linked lists and other linked data structures. We may have also heard about their asymptotically-fast insert and delete operations. But, linked lists' flexibility comes at a cost. This video takes you through some of the downsides, including additional memory usage, poor memory locality, and slower traversal speeds. I also include some example code (in C) to demonstrate these differences in contrast to arrays. (uses getrusage and make)
It also shows you how to define a preprocessor define from the command-line (-D).

Welcome! I post videos that help you learn to program and become a more confident software developer. I cover beginner-to-advanced systems topics ranging from network programming, threads, processes, operating systems, embedded systems and others. My goal is to help you get under-the-hood and better understand how computers work and how you can use them to become stronger students and more capable professional developers.
About me: I'm a computer scientist, electrical engineer, researcher, and teacher. I specialize in embedded systems, mobile computing, sensor networks, and the Internet of Things. I teach systems and networking courses at Clemson University, where I also lead the PERSIST research lab.
