Reverse Linked List

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>

/* Link list node */
struct node
{
    int data;
    struct node* next;
};

/* Function to reverse the linked list */
static void reverse(struct node** head_ref)
{
    struct node* prev   = NULL;
    struct node* current = *head_ref;
    struct node* next;
    while (current != NULL)
    {

        current->next = prev;   
        prev = current;
        current = next;
    }
    *head_ref = prev;
}

/* Function to push a node */
void push(struct node** head_ref, int new_data)
{
    /* allocate node */
    struct node* new_node =
            (struct node*) malloc(sizeof(struct node));
            
    /* put in the data  */

/* Function to print linked list */

/* Drier program to test above function*/
int main()

    struct node* head = NULL;
   
     push(&head, 20);
     push(&head, 4);

     printList(head);

Recursive Reverse :

void recursiveReverse(struct node** head_ref)
{
    struct node* first;
    struct node* rest;
      
    /* empty list */
    if (*head_ref == NULL)
       return;   

    /* suppose first = {1, 2, 3}, rest = {2, 3} */
    first = *head_ref;  
    rest  = first->next;

    /* List has only one node */
    if (rest == NULL)
       return;   

    /* reverse the rest list and put the first element at the end */
    recursiveReverse(&rest);
    first->next->next  = first;  
     
    /* tricky step -- see the diagram */
    first->next  = NULL;          

    /* fix the head pointer */
    *head_ref = rest;              
}
