The given code defines a class Node and a function print_nodes that prints the elements of a singly linked list.
Let's analyze the print_nodes function:
- If the input pointer
ptr is not None, it prints the data of the first node. - It then enters a
while loop that continues as long as ptr.next is not None. Inside the loop, ptr is moved to the next node, and the data of each node is printed.
Given Linked List:
1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5
The first print statement prints the data of the first node: 1.
The while loop then iterates over the remaining nodes, printing their data: 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Output:
The output will be: 1 2 3 4 5, which matches the format 12345.
Correct Answer: A. 12345.
