Given a singly linked list and we want to count the elements that are continuously increasing and print the increasing linked list.
Examples:
Input : 8 -> 5 -> 7 -> 10 -> 9 -> 11 -> 12 -> 13 -> NULL Output : Number of continuously increasing elements = 4 Increasing linked list : 9 11 12 13 Input : 5 -> 12 -> 18 -> 7 -> 12 -> 15 -> NULL Output : Number of continuously increasing elements = 3 Increasing linked list = 5 12 18
The idea is to traverse singly linked list and compare curr->data with curr->next->data where curr is current node being traversed. If curr->data is smaller than curr->next->data then curr pointer point to curr->next and increment the length (continuous increasing element) by one. If the condition is false then compare the length with max and if max is less than len then assign the len value to max. Continue this process until head not equal to NULL. Also find the starting index of continuous increasing element. Next traverse the linked list and display the continuous increasing element in linked list.
