Dividing a linked list into two sublists of almost equal sizes a. Add the operation divideMid to the class linkedListType as follows: Consider the following statements: unorderedLinkedList myList; unorderedLinkedList subList; Suppose myList points to the list with elements 34 65 27 89 12 (in this order). The statement: myList.divideMid(subList); divides myList into two sublists: myList points to the list with the elements 34 65 27, and subList points to the sublist with the elements 89 12. b. Write the definition of the function template to implement the operation divideMid. Also, write a program to test your function. The header files linkedList.h and unorderedLinkedList.h are supplied. Your test program should produce output similar to this: Turn in: linkedList.h with modifications Your test program.

1. Dividing a linked list into two sublists of almost equal sizes
a. Add the operation divideMid to the class linkedListType as follows:
Consider the following statements:
unorderedLinkedList myList;
unorderedLinkedList subList;
Suppose myList points to the list with elements 34 65 27 89 12 (in this order). The statement:
myList.divideMid(subList); divides myList into two sublists: myList points to the list with the
elements 34 65 27,
and subList points to the sublist with the elements 89 12.
b. Write the definition of the function template to implement the operation divideMid. Also,
write a program to test your function. The header files linkedList.h and unorderedLinkedList.h
are supplied. Your test program should produce output similar to this:
Turn in:
linkedList.h with modifications
Your test program.
