# Twitter-C-Implementation
This project is part of the **Data Structures and Algorithms (DSDA) Lab** for college. It implements a simplified version of a Twitter-like platform using C. The application supports user registration, posting tweets, following/unfollowing users, viewing news feeds, and searching users by name.
---
## Features
1. **Post Tweets**
Users can post tweets with a unique tweet ID and a short message.
2. **Follow/Unfollow Users**
Users can follow or unfollow other users to manage their news feeds.
3. **View News Feed**
Retrieve the latest tweets from followed users and display up to 10 recent tweets.
4. **Search Users by Username**
Search for users by their username using a binary search tree for efficient lookup.
5. **Display Tweets**
View all tweets posted by a specific user.
---
## How to Run the Project
1. Clone the repository or download the code.
```bash
git clone https://github.com/Aditya-Ranjan1234/Twitter-C-Implementation.git
```
2. Compile the C program using a compiler like GCC:
```bash
gcc -o twitter_simulation dsda-el.c
```
3. Run the executable:
```bash
./twitter_simulation
```
---
## Menu Options
When running the program, you can select from the following options:
1. **Post a Tweet**: Enter the user ID, username, tweet ID, and the message.
2. **Follow a User**: Enter the follower ID and followee ID.
3. **Get News Feed**: View recent tweets for a specific user ID.
4. **Unfollow a User**: Remove a follow relationship.
5. **Search User by Name**: Search for a user by their username and view their details.
6. **Exit**: Exit the platform and free all allocated memory.
---
## Data Structures Used
- **Binary Search Tree (BST)**:
Used for efficient user lookup by username.
- **Stack**:
Utilized to store and manage tweets for quick access.
- **Linked List**:
Stores tweets for each user.
---
## Code Highlights
1. **Binary Search Tree for User Search**:
Efficiently searches users by their username for faster results.
2. **Stack for News Feed**:
Provides a way to retrieve the latest tweets efficiently.
3. **Dynamic Memory Management**:
Ensures proper allocation and deallocation of memory for user and tweet data.
