This GTK 3 desktop application is designed to visually represent and manipulate a linked list data structure. It offers a modern and interactive user interface, allowing users to perform operations on a linked list and see the results in real-time.
Cairo: The Cairo graphics library is used for 2D vector graphics and rendering. It's used here for drawing shapes and text on the GTK drawing area.
Pango: Pango is a library for laying out and rendering text. It's used for text rendering within the capsules in the linked list visualization.
g_object: g_object is not a library but a GObject, which is a fundamental type in GTK programming. It's part of the GObject system, providing a framework for object-oriented programming in C. It's used for managing objects and their properties in GTK applications.
gint: gint is a typedef for a signed integer used in GLib and GTK. It's often used for integer data types in GTK applications.
Dynamic Linked List Operations: Add, remove, and search for elements in the linked list.
Modern User Interface: Styled with CSS for a sleek and responsive design.
Real-time Visual Feedback: Visualize changes in the linked list as they happen.
Interactive Animations: Special animations during search operations for enhanced user experience.
GTK+ 3: For creating the graphical user interface.
C Programming Language: The core logic of the application.
To compile the GTK-3 code, use the following command:
gcc $(pkg-config --cflags gtk+-3.0) -o main main.c $(pkg-config --libs gtk+-3.0)
After compiling, run the application with:
./main
