Java Program to Implement Circular Singly Linked List

This is a Java Program to implement a Circular Singly Linked List. A linked list is a data structure consisting of a group of nodes which together represent a sequence. Under the simplest form, each node is composed of a data and a reference (in other words, a link) to the next node in the sequence. This structure allows for efficient insertion or removal of elements from any position in the sequence. In a circular singly linked list each node has only one link which points to the next node in the list and the last node of the list points to the first element of the list.

Here is the source code of the Java program to implement Circular Singly Linked List. The Java program is successfully compiled and run on a Windows system. The program output is also shown below.
