In a singly linked list, operations have the following time complexities:
-
Insertion:
- At the beginning of the list — O(1), as it is enough to change the head pointer.
- At the end or at an arbitrary position — O(n), as it is necessary to traverse the list to the desired position.
-
Deletion:
- Deletion of the first element — O(1).
- Deletion of an element by value or position — O(n), as it is necessary to find the element and the previous node.
-
Search:
- Searching for an element by value — O(n), as it is necessary to traverse the list sequentially.
Thus, insertion and deletion operations at the beginning of the list are very fast, while others require linear time due to the need to traverse the list.
