C中的指针和链表

我在C中开始学习指针和链接列表,但我有一个问题:

struct pointer
{
       int id;
       struct pointer *next;
};

int pop(struct pointer *head, struct pointer *tail);

main()
{
    struct pointer *head = NULL;
    head = (struct pointer*)malloc(sizeof(struct pointer));
    head->id=1;
    struct pointer *tail = head;
    tail->next=NULL;
    pop(head,tail);
    if (head==NULL) printf ("In main, head is NULL");
    else printf ("In main, head is NOT NULL");
}    

int pop(struct pointer *head, struct pointer *tail)
{
    int toReturn;
    struct pointer *toFree;
    if (head!=NULL)
    {
       toReturn = head->id;
       toFree = head;
       head = head->next;
       free(toFree);
       if (head==NULL)
          tail = head;
    }
    else toReturn = -1;
    if (head==NULL) printf ("In function, head is NULL\n");
    else printf ("In function, head is NOT NULL\n");
    return toReturn;
}

为什么输出:

In function, head is NULL
In main, head is NOT NULL

我期待这个:     在函数中,head为NULL     在main中,head为NULL

这是我第一次使用C指针进行操作,无法理解我的错误

pop功能中,您要修改head变量。由于C是按值传递参数,因此必须提供head变量的地址才能修改其值。同样适用于tail

从而改变你的pop功能:

int pop(struct pointer *head, struct pointer *tail)

为:

int pop(struct pointer **head, struct pointer **tail)

调用此函数时,请使用pop(&head, &tail);
