out put:
Enter the total number of nodes: 4
Enter the data of node 1: 10
Enter the data of node 2: 20
Enter the data of node 3: 40
Enter the data of node 4: 50
SINGLY LINKED LIST CREATED SUCCESSFULLY
Data in the list
Data = 10
Data = 20
Data = 40
Data = 50
Enter data to insert at middle of the list: 30
Enter the position to insert new node: 3
DATA INSERTED SUCCESSFULLY
Data in the list
Data = 10
Data = 20
Data = 30
Data = 40
Data = 50
HOPE THIS HELPS YOU
