Solution

The time complexity of traversing a singly linked list to print all its elements is O(n).

Here's why:

  1. Traversing a linked list means going through each element of the list one by one.

  2. In the worst-case scenario, the element you are looking for could be the last one in the list or not in the list at all.

  3. Therefore, in the worst-case scenario, you would have to go through n elements, where n is the total number of elements in the list.

  4. Hence, the time complexity is O(n).
