Solution
Here is a step-by-step guide to solve this problem:
-
First, create a new node with the given integer as its data attribute. Let's call this new node
newNode. -
If the head pointer given is null, this means the initial list is empty. In this case, simply assign
newNodeto the head and return the head. -
If the position to insert the new node is 0, this means we want

This challenge is part of a tutorial track by MyCodeSchool and is accompanied by a video lesson.You are given the pointer to the head node of a linked list and an integer to add to the list. Create a new node with the given integer. Insert this node at the tail of the linked list and return the head node of the linked list formed after inserting this new node. The given head pointer may be null, meaning that the initial list is empty.Function DescriptionComplete the insertNodeAtTail function in the editor below.insertNodeAtTail has the following parameters:SinglyLinkedListNode pointer head: a reference to the head of a listint data: the data value for the node to insertReturnsSinglyLinkedListNode pointer: reference to the head of the modified linked listInput FormatThe first line contains an integer , the number of elements in the linked list.The next lines contain an integer each, the value that needs to be inserted at tail.ConstraintsSample InputSTDIN Function ----- -------- 5 size of linked list n = 5 141 linked list data values 141..474 302 164 530 474Sample Output141302164530474ExplanationFirst the linked list is NULL.
