So I have this simple linked list and i want to insert its elements into a vector(in main function). I've tried the following function and in the main function v[i]=vectore(list);

int vectore(node *list){
if(list!=NULL){
vectore(list->next);
list=list->next;
return list->data;}

ps: im new to C and programming

Hi,
I'm guessing you're doing this in C++; as far as I know, C does not have vectors. It looks like when you call your function, it returns the first item in your linked list. Because the vectore function does not do anything with the return value when it calls itself, all subsequent items are ignored. Your function needs to keep track of all the items as it goes. It could return a vector instead of an int, and take a vector as an argument. Or better yet, it takes a vector as an argument by reference and modifies it. So the header would be:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

1. void vectore(node *list, vector<int>& vec){

Then if list isn't NULL, you push_back it's data into the vector, set list to it's next, then have the function call itself. You would get rid of the return statement.
Hope this helps.
