Plug and Play is a technology wherein hardware components that are installed on PCs using Microsoft operating system are immediately recognized and made usable. This means that the drivers necessary to make it work are already available on the operating system package.

1. Have two indexes pointing to two ends of array, say i and j.

2. Approach towards each other with a check condition that they dont cross each other.

3. Each iteration of while loop, swap the numbers pointed by two indexes when num[i] index number is not equal to 1.

void sort()

{

     int a[]={1,0,0,0,1,1,0,1,0,1,0,0,1,0};

     int i=0;

     int j=13;

     int temp;

      while(j>i)

     {

          if(a[i]==1)

                 i++;

          if(a[j]==0)

                 j--;

          if(a[i]==0)

         {

                 temp=a[i];

                a[i]=a[j];

                a[j]=temp;

         }

     } 

     for(i=0;i<14;i++)

             Console.Write(a[i]+", ");

}

Output: 1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0

This problem isn't too hard. You just need to start at the head of the list, and iterate to the end. At each node, swap the values of pNext and pPrev. Finally, set pHead to the last node in the list.

Node * pCurrent = pHead, *pTemp;

while (pCurrent)

{

  pTemp = pCurrent->pNext;

  pCurrent->pNext = pCurrent->pPrev;

  pCurrent->pPrev = temp;  

  pHead = pCurrent;

  pCurrent = temp;

}
